Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?
Dear Clamp,
We miss the late night Clamp Show. What does NewK look like? I'm thinking,
a Russell Crowe type? What do you say? Am I close? Do you have a better picture of him?
Maybe we should have a Picture That Newk contest?
Thanks,
Sleepless north of Atlanta knowing that if I own it, and it uses a/c, its broke, if not broke, it will re-broke soon "

Not trying to gripe, but what's going on with MSPM88?? SLCM88 is officially over, and MSP M88 is still running close to 40% on reserve. Is it ever gonna end?

Not to be a stick in the mud but really? It could not possibly be worse than ATL. I've never once had a good experience in ATL. It's a breath of fresh air each time I get to a North base. ATL is a crap hole where only delays and bad things happen. Sorry but that place sucks in every way. There is no way you could convice me that a North base has more issues than ATL.
80 is correct. There is another thread devoted to this subject. We just had a 320 LCA who frequents this board spend a month collecting SE Taxi data to present to the fleet. If you want to see a summary visit the Flt Ops A320 Fly By Wire page.
I just finished a 4 day and got the CA to SE taxi almost every leg. An exception was a 5 min taxi in JFK(of all places) off Gate 1 to 31L @ KK. We needed 5 minutes since it was first flight of the day and we actually had to wait 2:30 before we started to taxi. Guys are getting better.
One thing that needs to be changed is our Vol 1 prohibits X-Bleed starts with the parking brake OFF. It must be set in order to do a X-Bleed start, so if we want to SE Taxi we have to keep the APU running. That needs to be changed.

Hey, I've been trying to SE taxi on the DC9,...but on a -50 series above 110000 # I feel like I am blowing stuff over as I push 'em up over 80% to get the ship moving ! That doesn't include asphalt nervana's like EWR! That's about 90% ! Ahhhhh!
Soooooo........SE taxing on a -9 sometimes can blow stuff over......
