Standard Pilot indoctrination stuff. Whoops, did I say Pilot indoctrination? I meant to say political re-education, just as DAL new hires have to resist being brainwashed into becoming Kool-aid drinkers (the instant, life-long, 100% effective, and totally irreversible cure being a furlough while DCI hires tons) but I digress. SWA new-hire Pilots must surely also run this gauntlet of attempted neural re-wiring. If your buddy takes this stuff too seriously he apparently would be a good subject for the Jedi mind tricks - you know "These are not the droids you are looking for" etc. Scoop :) |

Anyone,
Why when I log into icrew sometimes the pop up screen says logging out? Can get into the flight ops page with no problem. It is hit or miss. Sometimes it allows me to log right in to icrew and other times not. |
Heyas,
RE: The recent lack of scope message. You will NEVER see a message about scope come out of the MEC Officers. Never. It's a betting game. "They" risk alienating what is soon to become the majority of ALPA members, versus another group saber rattling about bringing in a new union. I'm thinking that they're betting right. Nu |

Ahh yes. another quintessential baseless muck raking speech from a DPA supporter. And they wonder why DPA continues to lose cards...:rolleyes:
Satch This is more like watching Wal-Mart lose customers to the local Hardware Store. You WANT to support your local business, and the guy that runs it is a really nice guy that means well, but they are only open from 10-5:30 and 10-1 on Saturday (closed Sunday). When you do go in, it takes them an hour to find what you need. True be told, IMHO, the DPA went about things the wrong way, but hey, that's their call. Never challenge a man to his own game in his own house. Nu |

Yeah, you're right Nu. The merger with NWA was a really bad idea for Delta South. What were they thinking?:rolleyes:

Utter BS. Delta pilots on this webboard asked for some form of proof/documentation so we could enforce our contract. ALPA went to management. They did investigate, and scope was enforced. Really! |
Any of ya'll been reading the Airtran SLI thread? It is incredibly entertaining. It is now my new morning chuckle...

The jets should be here, but the company is going to price that very high due to commitments to these third party contractors. It is why a logical phase out makes the most sense.
I agree. We should have a fierce approach to reducing the number of 76 seaters. Remember....or we are doomed to loose these......http://cdn-www.airliners.net/aviatio.../2/0057205.jpg for these... http://www.bombardier.com/files/en/s...27-03-K7AB.JPG and they wont say Delta on them! |

It is reminiscent of the ALPA webboard discussions during the NW DAL merger. I for one am glad that is behind us. |

Don't take this the wrong way but......pay wise he doesn't need to. Their third and forth year fo's are making our narrow body captain pay already.:( |
