Airline Pilot Central Forums - Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?

I don't know what to tell you, Gunfighter. You are talking about Personal Drop, right? Maybe there is something different between our categories, because I've P/D'd many times as I've posted. The only reason I've personally ever had PCS/crew scheds deny it is for Capped Reserves (i.e. Someone senior to me dropped/moved days in the PCS run eliminating the surplus by the time they got to me)

Yes, it was a PD. It would have created a 4th offday grouping in a 4-99-3 category as well as a reserve block less than 4 days. I'm not convinced the PD is exempt from the X-99-X rules.

I've done it. Multiple times in multiple months without issue. I don't know what else to tell you.

The only place I know that a rat would run past your feet, a pigeon would fly past your head and you could literally sign in and do your morning business if your arms were long enough and no one batted an eye. Just another day in JFK.

Considering that half the time it wouldn't flush, you could also bring the admiring masses in for show and tell.:D

If anyone is in need of some orange stuff and wants to be discrete, PM me your name/employee number and I will let you know which V-file contains envelopes with 1 each of a bag tag and lanyard. Timbo can vouch for me.
(And so begins the Easter egg hunt by someone in the CPO... Hint: it's not 134089)
Klondike Bear, quitcherbelkyakin...I gave you one that was longer. (Que the responses to that!)

Commuting just got a little tougher

Gents,

Heads up (Nugget, Cranium, whatever....) Shuttle America is cancelling flights due to manning. It looks like they are be proactive and cancelling them around 5 days out.

The other best part was there was no ventilation fan. And you could do it in formation with your buddy.

What kind of **** show were those pan am guys running. :D I said air show. But its true.

Thanks much for the Orange swag Buckleboy!

I was talking to one of our new hires (13 months) yesterday, he asked me, "What's that you are wearing?" speaking about my orange lanyard. I explained to him what it's about.

He said he wasn't allowed to vote in the last TA but would have voted no.
I haven't seen much other orange swag on other pilots since the ATL recall meeting though.

I'm guessing you've never been to the LGA lounge if you think ATL is ghetto.

You need to see EWR then. I think there might be 3 working lounge chairs, a few broken office chairs, and a bathroom with a sign in the sink asking you not to pee in it. And no, I'm not kidding about the sign.
