Pam. Everyone loves Pam.

So like I said, big picture. Happy SOC day, happy New Years Eve, happy MOAB posting Eve, happy good football day and eve, happy year of posts, happy cozy fogged in day in ATL, happy merger and here's to having the best airline ever... so damnit kum by ya, ya'll! :D

Now back to the hair pulling.

He might get a two point infraction for a little to much "Under Signage"

80 mentioned fencing SEA earlier, how would fences work for SEA, LAX or ANC if AS came? Especially since we already have the 737 and a 737 LAX base, an international widebody SEA base?

I could see a situation where DALNS pilots can't bid 737 SEA and AS pilots cannot bid 7ER/330 SEA for a time period. But what about LAX?

And what about the real Alaska flying? Seems like you need that managed by people in AS, not by ATL.

And with 734s on property and as a former MD80 operator, why would we put our MD88/DC9 pilots beneath them in a seniority merger? If we're talking expectations nobody at DALSN was ever hired at a time when we only were a regional airline, many of them were. And we were all hired at DALSN no matter what your seniority with widebodies as a reasonable expectation, they were not.

And then what about Horizon? I thought they we're going all Dash 8-400s btw but as someone mentioned earlier would we see a mass expansion of 76 seaters at the current DCIs :mad:? Or wait, do Dash 8-400s count as 76 seaters?

And a new contract? What would that be like? Is our 2012 contract about to come in 2010?

Lots of dumb questions and if you don't like them then more Pam. I don't want anyone annoyed with me:

Define 'hat tricks' please. :confused: I'm assuming you mean A positions. Is that correct?

acl65pilot 12-31-2009 01:02 PM

From what I have heard, and I would not even state it as fact as the results are locked tight, is that no 2007 hire or beyond got an A position or a 777B position.

The posting time appears to be 1200 EST tomorrow.

If they post the bid prior to midnight tonight they will have to convert all pilots within 210 days of the date this bid was posted. There is already a question of if the bid is legal because it posted in 09 and they have already used there one get out of jail free card for 09. The bid wont post earlier then the 1 Jan.

How about '01 hires? C'mon ACL!

It did not sound like it but they will not answer a question, they will only retort to a statement. Spoken like a true lawyer.

I hate when bids are posted and I'm out flying the line. It's hard to stay focused.
