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

Human psychology is fascinating.

Three people (1 guy and 2 women) literally have a tornado right behind them, they run to the bathrooms for cover, and somehow they wind up in the correct bathroom. :o

I'm that someone and, yes, they did. The CP briefed it during the LEC meeting. 6 -9s originally scheduled to be removed from service due to impending heavy checks will now receive those checks and remain in service. Marketing needs them. The drawdown is now scheduled to commence in 2012. The next AE will not reflect any -9 reductions.

88 is right. Post deleted..... :D

That Newk can get pretty mad sometimes.

Speaking of tornadic newk activity, I overheard a crew last year talking about taxing in somewhere and a tornado was spotted. The crew was far from the gate and while the tornado disappeared it did raise the question, what do you do if you're out on a taxiway with a tornadic newk coming? Seems to me airliners seem to survive tornadoes alright while $2M+ Cessna 208 demonstrators don't...
