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

My favorite to date is still the 88 CANPA approach acronym: MAAAAAAAAP. I can't remember what all of the A's are. I remember sitting in a daze going, is that for real? 'Technique only' right?

LAVS. Still works for me and makes me fleet standard. :D

IMO it is more along the lines of doing what is expected, keeping the operation going, and aid the passengers. We are the front line and in many cases the difference between a return customer and a complaint. That is how you aid the company. Information that is timely, accurate and without bias. Simply put the consummate professional. I know you know this, you are a Captain! :D

For the new hires it is
Safety, Customers Service and Efficiency. Yes that is asked! :eek:

sniff... sniff... I want hiring to start... sniff... people below me... sniff...

Anyone care to guess what will this proposed UAL/LCC merger will do to the DAL/LCC NYC/DCA slot swap? IF anything?

I'm guessing the slot swap is to try and set LCC up for a merger. The slot swap is fairly one-sided towards Delta's best interest to begin with.

When I was at my AMR interview, we all looked like clones except for 2 guys. One guy was wearing cowboy boots and neither had red ties. When we were all in a big room waiting for what was next, an important looking guy stuck his head in the room and said sort of laughingly, "No red ties, you two won't be getting hired," chuckled and walked out. We all thought that was strange. Neither one was hired. True story.
