Very good source told me Delta might start picking up again, and very shortly

Yea, the idea of more than a couple landings a month is scary! But I have downloaded the 88 manuals and looked at the pics :D

Picking up what, the pieces? :D

In reality I agree, it looks like by this time next year things will be moving along quite nicely. The debate is to stay put, enjoy seniority or bid up and hope the trend keeps going.

Never know what is going to happen, but it would be prudent to keep your apps updated. :cool:

Hey FtB;
Good morning, just for you!

88 is not a bad just. It gets a bad rap, but I bet you like it from the left seat. :D

73N LoD Spreadsheets
 

Gents,

I posted those 73N LoD Q&A spreadsheets over in the DALPA forum. You can find 'em at:

Forums > Delta MEC > File Library > 73N LoD Q&A Spreadsheets.

Fly safely,

Left will be nice, but driving to work (even 2 hours) is better than a RJ ride to work!

I hear ya. Trying to psyche myself for a commute when it becomes necessary. I consider myself a wimp when it comes to commuting. Many ugly experiences out of DFW.

Thanks for taking the time to do these.

Economy grows at 5.7 pct pace, fastest since 2003



WASHINGTON (AP) -- The economy grew for a second straight quarter from October through December, posting a 5.7 percent annual rate, the fastest pace since the third quarter of 2003.

The Commerce Department report is the strongest evidence to date that the worst recession since the 1930s ended last year, though an academic panel that dates recessions has yet to officially declare an end to it.

The two straight quarters of growth last year followed a record four quarters of economic decline. Still, the growth at the end of last year was primarily fueled by companies refilling depleted stockpiles, a trend that will soon fade.

The report also provides an upbeat end to an otherwise dismal year: The nation's economy declined 2.4 percent in 2009, the largest drop since 1946.
