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

Geeze!! Is anyone else having a hard time building a schedule this month? I have two weeks vacation (42 hours) and finding something in the last two weeks of in April that fits the LCW is tough. I may be an RLL in April.

Got an interesting email from the LAX reps who are getting an ear full from both planes, but primary the ER guys, about the quality of the trips.

Is anyone else having a hard time building something, or is it just us?

Naw, let's stay in a state that actually likes and appreciates us. I think Minnesota said something about not letting the door hit us on the way out. Always was a love/hate relationship, especially after NWA broke promises up in Duluth.

Too late for this month I guess, but I wonder what (if anything) will be done for next month. Glad to see guys raising a stink.

Most interesting email I've ever gotten from the union that's for sure.

Back to pulling my hair out............what's left of it anyway

Why are the cockpit windows in the two shuttle pictures different?

One of them looks quite a bit like an MD product's cockpit window arrangement...almost like someone photoshopped it right on there. :)

Since we're talking about trips that suck...anybody have a clue on what's up with ATL767? Waaay too many 4 & 5 leg days in that bid pack. Seems like an abnormally high percentage of reserves(25ish %), just wondering if that is the norm for that category. I know the category is supposed to go away eventually, but it seems like flight ops is back-pedaling on that.

I didn't.. and I didn't intimate that either in my diatribe. I was pointing out how scumbag politicians (I know.. redundant) can see a loss of tax revenue as a "cost".. and then I mused how much it would "cost" the Georgia taxpayers if DAL were to move to MN...
