This group is educated, but not to the extent that we are. More emotion would play in to it, and there could be major headaches for them going forward. What I want them to do is immaterial. I do have an opinion though. (I can argue both sides of it too!) |

I just know I'm backsliding and on my way out probably. Looking at the little bus in SLC.
Buzz, Didn't you hear? ATL is losing widebody seats - nobody cares about us peasants in the provinces. :) Scoop |

Add to it that if (god forbid it would) there ever was a problem with the aircraft, wouldn't a senior guy be far better to have on a DC-9 and a younger guy (with much better understanding of data) be far better to have on a 777 or similar ac? So, yes, the conclusion I come up with is that everybody wins and you are junior when you are junior, just like you are supposed to be (like me..). Is this really a problem at DAL - with 10 year + upgrade times? Scoop |
YES!!!
Hey NuGuy, I got BidAsstant 3 to load and it does use all the Delta stuff great. Thanks for turning me on to it, I saw the beta version for it but just thought it was something for old NWA since I hadn't updated in a while. You da man! Ferd PS Hey Southies...........go look at ghale.com It's a great program. For sorting etc it's about like NavTec but the post award products are much better. Plus, it's a onetime charge to buy the program in the stopover store and free upgrades after that. I had version 2 so version 3 was free. |

Agree 100% (in the last year fallen from 20% to 60%), trips have gone downhill and more non-commutable trips (especially SNA). Not really keen on going to school but the small bus in Salt Lake is starting to look pretty good.
