Maddog guys,
Do the 88/90's have digital pressurization? All the pics of DAL Maddog flight decks I've seen online show the old analog pressurization control!
Even our DC-9osaurs have digital pressurization. Although I think we have 1 DC9-30 left in the desert that has the old analog still, but it won't be coming back.

I may have missed it--when is the FA's union vote?

They're known tongue in cheek as the "XXX Mafia". Not, as they say, "that there's anything wrong with that." Except when there is; in which case, one had best not complain.

I've been perusing the AE bid this morning and trying to figure out where I will land. Some interesting things stand out. There are 60 something DC 9 Bs being displaced from MSP and DTW. Assuming only MDs, those guys all have numbers in the 12000s. Where are they going to go? There are more vacancies than surpluses so they have jobs. It looks like they will be MDd to a pay raise. Or do the top 60 something AE somewhere to a better position?
The 60 744 Bs all have numbers in the 8000s. Some can be bottom 9 As but I doubt many will take that option. They all get pay cuts as the 777 is fenced. All who are looking at the NYC 765 category, look out for these guys.
It will be interesting to see which becomes the most junior category, DTW 9 or NYC 88. That is where the bottom of both sides resides. I think it all hinges on what the senior ATL people do. If they chase dollars and captain seats the results will be vastly different than if they stay at home and displace of the bottom.
ps. Do the DC 9 Bs displaced to a higher paying category get pay "protected" at the lower level?

They haven't filed for a vote yet. That's the sticking point - I believe the AFA had filed, but it hadn't been acted upon. Then the whole thing with the voting rules came out, and the AFA (and the IAM I think) withdrew their request for a vote.
