So what's the over-under on the NYC Slot Swap agreement coming out in the next week or two?
If DAL/LLC are talking with the DOT/DOJ, as advertised in the media, I would think that they may be close to coming to some sort of compromise.

So what was the answer to the location of the PBS desktop app?
Asked and answered. Log into PBS and it's under the settings tab. Alas, it only works with Windows.

Which is EXACTLY what that guy still has with the combination of sick leave, TD, LTD, DPMA and Top up benefits. If a N guy came over with 2000 hours, and hasn't used any since the merger, and goes on disability today, he'll have about 2 years of full pay under the DAL PWA.... just like he would have at NWA.

True. Going through it now. STD pays 50%, DPMA pays about 24%. DPMA is tax free so that helps. Also, remember you have to pay premiums for DPMA coverage though admittedly not very much.

The less unused sick leave you had at NW, the better off you are under DPMA. For those that had over 2000 hours saved, they would have been better off using it prior to cutover. Of course nobody knew the exact date of the announcement so it was a crap shoot.

I would think we would need to hire and Comair might be able to avoid getting decimated as badly as they are. Weren't they supposed to get some of the slot swap flying back when this was initially announced?

... along those lines, if MD88 and DC9 crews are getting displaced ... who is going to perform that flying?

Just a guess though.

Really? How many pilots are we down since the merger? Seems like we need fresh faces doing IOE.

Well Bucking Bar, and the completion of the SLI we had, 12,434 pilots. This included all of those on various types of leave or furlough bypass as well.
Today we have 12,300 exactly.
We have about 740 jets or about 16.62 pilot per airplane.
