Hey it's funny because it's true! I really do try to set a relaxed tone. Hopefully the FOs would state the same.

I had heard that the 757's were going to take over from the 319's as the NBA charter aircraft, and would be specially configured, etc... Does anyone know if this is still happening and if so, is that for next season or further out? It looks like the 319's are still doing those charters now.

Best brief ever, "All I care about is the 15th and the 30th. Preflight check please."

Question about Delta Sky club and my nonrev mother: Will she be allowed to enter the club if she pays the $59 daily fee, and is nonreving on my benefits? I'm pretty sure she can, but I would hate to set her up with a 12 hour layover at JFK, just to have to sit in the concourse somewhere, like Tom Hanks.

It was announced officially on deltanet back in September. 11 757s coming out of retirement and being refurbed. The charters start next October. Search deltanet news for "NBA" and the story will come up.

Long sleeves was always my "Master Caution".

Long sleeves WITH a "I do everything by the book" was a Master Warning.

Not saying everyone, but it was a very good predictor of solo dinners during the trip.

When do the other 757s come out of the desert?

The dozen that were announced about a month after the NBA bunch, that is.

Springtime?

You may have flown with Capt. Gucci out of JFK, long sleeves, tailored uniforms from Milan. Face lift too. What a treat.
