Well, maybe Tsquare, Beer, Shiznit, LeinLodge and friends will enjoy this with me:

The University of Southern California will return the Heisman Trophy won by former star tailback Reggie Bush in 2005, incoming university president C.L. Max Nikias announced Tuesday. USC will return Bush's trophy to the Heisman Trophy Trust next month and will take down any jerseys or murals recognizing the former star.

Is that not a recognition of guilt?

Any guess how much our $90 million profit share will be? Or when they will share it?

Thanks.

Flew my last leg of a very long trip back to CVG this evening. To our surprise, there were 6 A320s there.

I mentioned this to one of the maintenance guys and he said, "Don't even get me started !!!". He ended up mentioning that there will soon to be more A320s overnighting than all the other DAL metal combined.

So, is there anyone else who has heard a possible A320 base in CVG and the MD88/90s going elsewhere?

Nosmo,


I am pretty sure that it does. I think during BK they took away sick and vacation credit counting toward toward greenslips and also lowered the pay to 1.5 vice 2.0. You can guess what happened - guys stopped putting in for greenslips. You can check your time card on I-crew - it will show the GS trigger and how much credit you have toward it.

Scoop

Yes done that..got the 2X T-shirt

Not to assume but it's either because 320s require maintenance while Boeing and MD products never require maintenance or MELs, note sarcasm, or he's lost sight that mainline is better than rjs and to keep the big picture: 320 = job, CVG < DTW, be glad CVG is still there.

I mean this aint pre 9/11 and pre 2000, if you're a line mechanic and a plane needs afixin then that's job security. The more problems the better I'd think. But that's just me and I like paychecks even if it interferes with the Honorable Judge Judy.

But I'm assuming and don't mean to pick on one guy.

Jumpseat priority on regionals
 
Anybody know if Delta pilots have priority over other Delta regional pilots for the jumpseat on a regional jet? IE flying on Pinnacle do we have priority over comair, skywest etc. Obviously a Pinnacle guy has first priority. thx

I know someone on here mentioned the Philly?? is going to mainline maint. So is PHX and we are going back to mainline maint at MEM too. I like this trend...
