For some reason it is always that Haiti flight.

AA runway excursion!
 
Just saw where AA ran off runway in heavy rain last night in Jamiaca. Reported 40 folks hurt. Don't know which aircraft.

What does this have to do with Delta. We already get enough college football crap, that clutters up this thread. Lets not add more "fluff."

College football comes with coed pictures and underboob. Its a give and take. :D

Although I will say this about AMR, and max you're right there is a seperate thread dedicated to the 737 overshoot last night, but nobody can have an incident or crash and get is scrubbed from the news better than AMR. I'm sure people don't even know about the MD-80 incident in CLT last week in the fog.

And when those below you got burned out in said environment, they call in sick, as they should (not fit to fly). I remember seeing 9 Captains with 9 to 10 days off a month, ***... Great airplane and schedule for slugging it out in a winter northeast, 21 days a month. Please... Get of your high horse.

Do you remember the sick time proposed by Kolshack during the 1113 filing?

Any foreign US Embassy will sew them in for you.. no charge, and it usually only takes about 15-20 minutes. I did it in Kiev once, and I flashed my passport, walked right in, and was out in half an hour. Sweet.

73NG broke in to three pieces after it ran off the runway.

We just need to ask how we got here? The policy is OK at best, and needs improvement.

Crap? Clutter?

Agree fully - to think how far we have fallen since contract 2000........I hope that the new LEC officers as well as all the MEC are up to the task come 2012.
