nu·ga·to·ry/ˈn(y)o͞ogəˌtôrē/Adjective

1. Of no value or importance.
2. Useless; futile.

Use it in a sentence with the fewest amount of words:

"You're nugatory."

But it's not indefinite right? So if the 767 continues to shrink and gets even more senior the seniority of most senior 88 FO's won't be enough to warrant the jump if QOL is their goal.

I'll take "weird failures related to the radar altimeter" for $50.

The only play I see there is pay protection, if they have the cojones to bid NYC.

MD88, displaced to 765, displaced back to MD88 ... keep the 765 pay.

back at coex we had to look through the past few pages of the logbook to check for history and in doing so there was write up after write up concerning the lavatory being inop. It was finally fixed when the right engine was replaced. It was something like LAV INOP, remarks ENG 2 REPLACED. They were really good with maintenance there btw and it actually fixed it. Go throttle-by-wire.

The best I ever saw there was when we had a plane break on push back in PHL. We started looking back through the book, tons of complaints about electrical gremlins and bizzare EICAS messages and then a "we saw a bird through the glare shield." MX reported, no bird. More odd EICAS write ups and NO DISP messages followed by "saw a bird" "mx: no bird" "We can see the bird moving around" "mx: glareshield removed no bird found" it was so hilarious. That bird could be long gone and that plane is going to be screwed for a long time.

One variable to this moving flying to Atlanta discussion that I've not seen discussed is the addition of International concourse F. Although 12 to 16 gates might not sound like much, it relocates jets that do not have a lot of movements out of T concourse and other areas at the airport that are scheduled for much tighter turns, leveraging their new found availability. Delta's challenge, with Southwest coming to town, is going to be to fill Hartsfield Jackson back up again, as it has always done to both maximize connecting opportunities for passengers and keep out competitors.

Specs for the new facility, set to go on line in April 2012 are:

* 1.2 million square-foot terminal and concourse complex, large enough to accommodate 13 New World of Coke museums
* 12 wide-body capable international gates, convertible to 16 narrow-body capable gates
* In-line baggage screening system
* 9 security checkpoint lanes for international departing passengers
* 6 security recheck lanes for domestic connecting passengers
* 1,100 short-term parking spaces in close proximity to the terminal
* New facility will ease load on existing domestic gates by providing gate capacity during international non-peak times

LOL

But, actually, I wasn't kidding. The Radar Altimeter is the common link to the mystery of the EEC, Autothrottles, PSEU, Flight Director and FMC going all yellow and blinky.

Interesting and good point Bar.

Hmmm... ATL 320 base, 9 base, bring back all of the 764s, 330 base, 744 base... pack the place in.

And when IROPS takes hold, if we do this right, we can take out two airlines at once...

Oh I believe you.

There is only one entity to blame for this...

:D

Whether fair or not.

I just watched the union video. KR talked about our dues money and contingency funds. I guess we have some extra funds for section 6 but what happened to all the money we had deducted to cover merger fighting? Is there any left? Do we get some back? Does the money just roll into the section 6 funds? Inquiring minds want to know.
