Yes, and the delivery vans are turning on to the street in front of the church. I think the date of corporate closure is very soon.

It amazes me that post after post you criticize DAL pilots for doing exactly what they should be doing. Your side is doing the exact same thing which is what they should be doing. Grasping at anything they can to paint an argument in their favor.

How is DAL portraying that they are saving Northwest? By fighting for their seniority (as both sides should)? All I have heard from anyone is that we are bringing the best of two companies in attempt to become one massive powerhouse of an airline.

If in regards to the DAL side you are talking about individual pilots I don't think their is one pilot here that has ever been under the impression that NWA was or is a dying airline.

In a perfect world this SLI would come out being equal for everyone, pretty hard to do. So perhaps some of the attitudes on here are not being fueled by the fact that one airline is saving the other, but instead that one airline is acquiring the other. Regardless of what airline is bringing what to the table at the end of the day that is how this transaction is going down. Delta acquiring NWA. So when your company is acquiring another I'd say it's a pretty natural instinct to be of the opinion that if someone is going to end up "making out" on this deal and it can't be equal, that it better be yours.

I am really puzzled as to why everyone is so bent out of shape when it comes to posters wanting the best for their side. Stop taking things personal and realize this is a pretty big deal, totally worth fighting to the death for, and in the end not our decision to make anyway.

You evidently only pick it up if its a criticism about the DAL side.;)

First off I have never said either side is "saving" the other. It's the dal side that portrays that one.

This is the thread that cannot die! It has something like a quarter million views, right?

It isn't a thread anymore . . . it's a virtual experiment to see if the "view counter" will flip over to 1,000,000 after 999,999 or go back to "1".

Not sure where to post this question but here it goes. Where can a Delta pilot go and see the proposed seniority list of DL & NWA. Just courious where I would stand.
