Narrator: Tsquare's laughing has reached critical mass, as the name Matt Leinart has been mentioned.

From todays Trimtab:
ETOPS Fuel Planning - FPS 2.0 vs WorldFlight
The below article is in response to a question from an A330 pilot inquiring why the A330 was consistently landing with more fuel on ETOPS flights when dispatched under FPS 2.0 than they had under WorldFlight. #######, Director - Performance and Planning wrote:
The root cause for the fuel difference between Worldflight and FPS 2.0 is... see Trim Tab under Flight Operations News on the landing page of Deltanet...
Also...
Delta TechOps has completed Wi-Fi installations on 501 of 577 planes in the fleet... livery repainting, the entire pre-merger Northwest fleet has been repainted with the exception of six 757s, which are scheduled to be finished by the end of the year. The 747 freighters and some DC-9s, which will be leaving the fleet, are not scheduled for the new livery... the pre-merger Delta fleet is about 70% in new livery and... by February... the entire fleet will be in the current Delta paint scheme.

Did anyone else notice the smooth transition from discussing crew scheduling to the Nazi discussion a couple of pages ago? Similarity I guess...

Then they tried to jip him out of his partial payback day so they could stick him on a 0600 SC. He had to call the CPSC just to get it squared away. It's ridiculous because they pull this crap in hopes that we will roll over or not catch it.

Also if you cannot find an answer e-mail one of the scheduling guys listed on your LEC site or the MEC guys. They are great at quickly answering your questions.
