Carl

Because you continue to. You seem to think that your arguments have merit. I tend to think mine do as well. I'm just pointing out that your arguments are every bit as biased and jaded as anybody else on this forum. Somebody has to point it out to you. I'll take that on. You keep spouting crap and I'll keep pointing it out. Deal?

Besides, Carl. What language is it that you write in? Are you published? Or, are you a bitter old former NWA captain who just can't accept that your reality has changed? Somebody moved your cheese, right? Get over yourself. You have 12,000 fellow brothers and sisters who are going through the same ****. We're really not all out to get you.

Do you? Seems to me that you are the one who continues to miss the facts. We all want a better company Carl. Want you want, apparently, is a return to the way it was for you. Its not gonna happen. You need to move on from trumpeting all the great virtues of a company that no longer exists and constantly berating the faults of the one that does.

We all have our prisms Carl. You claim that we can't see beyond ours. You, most definitely, can't see beyond yours.

No kidding. One of the above posters is a published author writing books based on historical facts and one is an old airline pilot.

Carl,
As far as "Delta Pride" goes - Any pride I had in Delta left the minute they furloughed me while outsourcing hundreds of flights to DCI.

You make good posts. We should name them, something that rhymes, like Scoop Poop. :D Maybe not that one exactly...

Well, the first quarter of 2010 didn't go well with our profits coming from one airline. Here's hoping for the rest of 2010.
Carl

I've got no data either, but I think they said 2Q-4Q would be better cost savings.

iphones allow you to post on the van, post in the security line, post at the gate, post while walking down the jetbridge, post whil... post as you walk back up the jetway, post as you wait for a van, post as you wait to sign in at the hotel...

That always reminds me of one of David Letterman's top 10 lists. It was the top 10 shows in the year 2015, and I only remember the last 2:

2. The Golden Girl
Carl

I think they achieved that in 2010.

Quick question. Once you get your manuals for new equipment, how do you keep them current until you convert? I have a stack of MD-88 stuff sitting in my house but don't go to training until December. Is there a way to sign up to get revisions?

There is a new VOL 1 btw on the 88, if you're in ATL swing by and pick a copy up. But by december there might be another one. I'm just dieing to go read mine, might do it tonight.

I'm 100% with you. But I say 91%.

Then again, that could wreak havoc in ATC with some planes that are running early going 250 and others doing 330.

60% of the time I'm with you every time.

That looks like a well planned syncronized attack on an unsuspecting target.
