Airline Pilot Central Forums - Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?

Just a word: if you aren't familiar with GUM from your prior military experience, you may want to think long and hard about moving to an island whose primary attraction is its enormous K-Mart.

After all, a guy can only spend so many nights in Club USA without going broke.

Frank,

I am not moving unless I sit in the left seat, and I do not see that happening. I do see a lot of senior guys going that way. There are a bunch of pilots that commute from those parts of the world.

They will resend the request for intent to all of the pilots on bypass. About 150 or so have stated it over the last few years, but they will want to confirm that before they start the process of off the street hires. Look for that to happen NLT mid summer. (just a guess of course)

I certainly don't see it happening before the summer.

330, did you get your vacation question figured out?

Tsquared. I beleive all of that is required by the PWA. I will check to confirm.

Yes, thanks. The PBS calendar shows me going to school next month, so I guess that explains it.
Is DAL giving us full type ratings now a days or are they putting the on DAL Only restriction?

I got a full type on the 7ER training (except for the VMC only restriction, but that's common at a 121 that doesn't do circle-to-lands).

I had never heard of an airline specific type until I talked to a friend at Fedex.

Letters going out to get a response in regard to once intent to come off bypass. Not hiring per se.
