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

I've had a couple flights (military) take me out over Pinal Air Park, northwest of Tucson, and there seems to be quite a bit of FNWA iron parked out there. At least 6-9 747's and a few look like they're being worked on.

I seem to remember about a thousand pages back that someone had mentioned jets parked in the desert and wanted to correlate.

Most of those are 747-200s. NWA had a bunch of those back in the day. We won't be seeing those again. There are a couple of -400's in the desert right now, not sure where, but they are supposed to all be on the line next summer sometime.

Most of the 400's out at Pinal are from Asian carriers. Most look brand spanking new too.

Anybody want to take an over/under bet on how many times they say "discipline?" They are really downplaying growth, trying to make the wall street guys happy.

I don't think I can count that high, but I just heard Andesron commit to below GDP growth. And I heard Jamie Baker suggest competitors aren't playing along all that well. Makes me think this would be good for the stock, bad for growth.

So how long until "they" start taxing bag fees when they hear we're making these huge profits?

Our Number One investor does not want any growth.
