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

Shiz, you didn't miss much. It was quick and they asked me questions about Iran and not what we'd talked about in the "pre-interview" with the producer. I'll be on again soon. I'm doing Brian Kilmeade's Fox radio show tomorrow morning which is on Sirius XM.

Meeting started at 11:00. Time for input is over. I am sure they will vote on the XJ and CPS TA's today.

Not going to guess, because as many know, a guess is just that, and when you get an MEC together anything is possible.

There you have it. Back to the ER bid.

Keep up the good flow of info team!

Seemed a little off base. I am sure they are looking at a 320 base in ATL and somewhere else, but to move all of those jets to SLC would be just plain weird. The synergies of this merger are all in the dynamics of flexibility of the fleet.

I'd be less surprised by an NYC or ATL 320 base, especially with them flying the shuttle stuff now.

This does not surprise me at all. "It's a beautiful thing folks."

I have a question and I want to try and stay apolitical here, but this is important, you talked about the attempt to appease terrorists, do you think, knowing all that you know now, that airline pilots can ever be appeased? :D

DC-9-30's

:( Well looks like 4 DC-9-30's will be flown into retirement today.... Delta flight 9934, 9935, 9936, and 9938. Maybe the MD-90's were just put into service.

I know that has to be a bummer, New talked about it at the beginning of the weekend when he realized that may be it.
