News Flash
News flash...it says EX (as in used to be AF). Now a crotchety old fart that happens to fly for DAL and really get's annoyed at having to scroll back and forth to read a stinkin' BB on the interweb because some idiots keep posting huge pics on the site for giggles. Granted...its funny once or even twice, but it stopped being funny a long time ago. I'm pretty sure there are plenty of Navy guys (as well as pure civvie, army, CG, fNWA, fDAL, SWA, regional pilot and any other pigeon hole you prefer) that are just as annoyed. I like pics just as much as the next guy, but if you aren't tech-savvy enough to post a reasonably sized pic, post a link or skip the pic.

Even I who generally lacks humor finds 80's large pictures as funny.

I believe that full pay restoration would only be possible with support from both customers paying higher fares and/or shareholders willing to accept lower returns on their investment in DAL. In the near future I don't believe that consumer would support any significant fare hikes above 2008 levels nor would shareholders want accept below average rates of return. As time progresses pilots need shareholder support to make further capital investment with new aircraft to replace DAL's aging DC9s, MD88s, early build 752s, no-ER 763, and early build 320s which will need replacement before 2020 if pilots want to have job security and prevent the fleet from shrinking further like AA did this past decade and will likely do in the next decade. You pilots don't want to end up in a situation where DAL would be worth more liquidated that continuing to operate.
