I mean really - 14 year upgrades, carrying bags up stairs for 55-year-old cat ranchers, watching Republic fly "my" old routes, grumpy ol'timers grumbling about SkyWest and Compass getting airplanes, and $40,000 a year - I already have all that at Comair. ::BI-WINNING:: :D

Now if they throw in some underboob, I'm at Delta in a heartbeat.

Sorry for hijacking the thread guys.

In the Latest and Greatest, there is no such thing as thread hijacking. As long as you don't advocate the overthrow of the US Government you are on solid ground for any topic around here. (but please no politics).

Congratz! I know the feeling. There was a period of time when I could walk the halls of NATCO and instructors on other aircraft would look at me and say "What are you doing here?" They had seen me around so much, they thought they knew me. Just call me Mr NATCO I'd say. NOT fun.

OTOH, LAX's pilot lounge hasn't had an upgrade since the Western days. We still can't get a cell phone signal and I don't think its been painted since we were flying the Connies.

MSP is a bit worse but that's not saying a whole heck of a lot.

I'll take the MSP lounge over LAX any day. Wireless and a cell phone signal can make all the difference in the world. The chairs are just as stinky. CVG and DTW FTW! I'm not even going to touch the earlier Date of Hire post. Bad ju ju.

Are you two kidding? Recurrent is actually pretty decent now. You can learn something if you want to.. it's not an evaluation session anymore.
