Where's the W-2's that they promised us during the week of the 17th. (I know it's not 4:59 EST yet)

I remember hearing an FBI PSA one time that talked about sexual assaults on sleeping female passengers on flights. I hope every time it happens it's reported and the dude is arrested.

I don't know why but that reminds me of joke I once heard:

Do you happy to know the difference between a sexual assault and a bad hangover?

I don't know where the 17th came from, but the note on DeltaNet saying to sign up for electronic W2s just said they would be available electronically "by the end of January".

A MadDog pilot wouldn't of care what she looked like, and an ER pilot wouldn't of cared if she was single.

After further research I see they do have eight A330-200 aircraft deliveries to occur in 2013 and 2014. That would be a nice fit for Delta, especially if we can configure them with Pratts and two man bunks.

And they do have 33 757/767s already so maybe they would like to add our ERs to have the flexibility similar to us.

While we're talking aircraft rumors, what about the one where the 767-400 doesn't fit in the UniCon fleet plan? Adding those to Delta's fleet would make the boeing boys happy.

Why would the fences not apply to more 744's?

Actually I think the fence would still apply. I believe the only way the fence is modified is if the 744s were replacements for 777s. Then the new 744 positions would be available to southies.

If the 744s are a new order, or in my example, a replacement for A330s, the whale flying would still belong solely to the north pilots.
