Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?
Do not forget the China Southern ones. We have not announced the JAL birds yet either.

Scoop
I agree, the Panasonic IFE's stink. Actually it is not the system but the power to them.
Ya know we have limiters on the seat chargers. It can run a computer or change it, but not both at the same time.......

The one that I won powerball and do not need to work 
In reality, many of these all hinge on JAL.
JAL deal or no deal
GUM waiting for approval of a base. Anywhere between 150-300 pilots
New aircraft. That is a real deal. Total of over 40 MD-90s (does not include the JAL 90's) Maybe some more and bigger ones, but once again it is based on the JAL deal
Hiring, short term the JAL deal will decide this as well.
A few others that had not made it here, but they are real too!

No kidding. Talk about somethng that really chaffs the pax. Just did a 6 hour leg from MCO-LAX and the IFE was inop. Not a lot of happy campers by the time we got to LAX. It can't be that expensive to actually buy an IFE that is dependable, can it?
We could but we would still pay for the one we originally signed the contract for.
I have talked to the Techs about the IFE. Even our guys state it is a power supply/source issue and not the software. Too many spikes etc. I guess they are in the process of up-gauging the wire that they use to get the power to the system from the buses. They say that is to alleviate/ stop the constant resets.
