Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?
The CP office may or may not get substantial "inside" intel on what's going on. They are not here for that. That said, any management team has to be a cheerleader for the company. But they are only getting what's coming down from on high and I doubt highly that anyone from that office is sitting in the boardroom when the glass is tinted dark and the true strategy is being discussed. From that you need to go to Finance, Network and Marketing.
The CP office seems to get the stuff that is coming in the next six to 12 months.

I know it is a big issue for you. If you look at T-4 there is not a lot of movement over there yet.
The Port Authority has to agree to a few things, once that happens then they can start the move and demo three. (Of course this whole AMR-JAL-DAL deal and its outcome can change a few things too)

I was talking to a mechanic this morningh as I did a maintenance repo from one of the JFK hangars. I guess connect 4 to 2 and keep the saucer. I was wondering if they'd keep it. To me it seems like a demo of ramp 3 could be done very fast.

I agree, and it can be, it is hauling it off that will take the time.

Toss it all in the ocean.
An 88 with a 150 cost index and no passengers is kind of funny thing to fly. Our nose was pointed below the horizon as we maintained 170 going 340ish knots.

Only one of these is real and the one that is real needs to be explained by the wiser ones on this thread and not just the wise asses that call this place home.

JAL Would Seek US Business Tie-Up, Not Capital Deal-Nikkei .
TOKYO (Nikkei)--Japan Airlines Corp. (JALSY, 9205.TO) and the entity that will sponsor its rehabilitation have decided to limit a possible alliance with either one of the two interested U.S. carriers to a business tie-up, rather than a partnership that includes equity ownership, it was learned Saturday.
JAL and the state-backed Enterprise Turnaround Initiative Corp. of Japan (ETIC) have apparently concluded that at least for the time being, a capital tie-up with a foreign airline would do more harm than good if JAL wants to quickly implement restructuring measures under the aegis of the government and ETIC.
ETIC originally planned to pick a partner from the two U.S. suitors--AMR Corp.'s (AMR) American Airlines and Delta Air Lines Inc. (DAL)--by the end of this month, but has now decided to spend more time on the selection process in order to best determine which partnership would generate greater synergy. As such, a final decision will come no earlier than February.
Since fall, both Delta and American have been in talks with JAL in hopes of concluding a capital and business alliance. Both U.S. airlines announced their willingness to inject around 100 billion yen worth of loans and investments into JAL, jockeying with each other for the right to buddy up with the Japanese carrier. But ETIC has apparently concluded that a capital tie-up with a U.S. airline could complicate JAL's rehabilitation process, as well as narrow ETIC's options as far as its own exit, which would come once JAL is back on its feet financially.
JAL was receptive to a capital tie-up with either one of the U.S. airlines, saying this would curb the amount of taxpayer money needed for its rehabilitation. But with ETIC now set to sponsor its turnaround, JAL will go along with the state-backed body on the matter.
JAL's top management and senior officials at the Transport Ministry appear to favor an alliance with Delta.
The carrier operates more flights between Japan and the U.S. than American does, and as such, a Delta tie-up is seen as creating greater synergy.
Meanwhile, both Delta and American are expected to press ETIC to soon make a decision on a partner.

And a business tie up instead of a financial one makes sense if they are going to shrink.
Thanks for posting.
Things seem to be moving quickly.

Its interesting to watch the world, or our world, stand still waiting for the JAL dam to break (either way).
