You have to download the old version of firefox. Someone posted how to find it awhile ago in this forum, try doing a search I think it was a few weeks ago.

Rapture smapture! Still alive and kickin in the ATL

Yep...^^^^^ This^^^^^

I am using Firefox on my android powered zoom. Works fine. Search for a post by Nosmo King, he hooked us up with a link to the older version that works with icrew.

I agree with you.

However, you have to admit management is trying. Dickson's recent end of week epistle referred to needing a chainsaw to harmonize the operation. I disagree. Delta is trying to fix and manage little pieces when they should be looking at the structural inadequecies of the operation.

As an individual event selling tickets, getting pax to the gate and launching an aircraft is a relatively straightforward operation. Combine that with the ballet or trainwreck that is the size of delta, the trick is to harmonize it all. It is possible, but DAL will not take the necessary steps.

The chief of mx, baggage handlers and gate agents is co-equal to flt ops. Fiefdoms dont play well together like that. There needs to be one chief and beneath that chief, indians.

Six sigma, not management by objective is what needs to be applied...in all areas. The operation could be well and simply run without the crisis de jour management that goes on. For example, you can send me a million emails and letters that tell me how great Attilla is and how it saves the company tons of money. Objectively, I know that is BS.

Our flt ops management team is sooooo much better that what we have had previously and they are moving little pieces in the right direction (due to corporate/ bureaucratic inertia). However, IMO, the whole script needs to be re-written and a good start would be a new corporate wiring diagram.

What happened to Col Angus' thread? I really wanted to see FTBs picture again...laughed til I cried...genius.

The mods moved it to Hangar Talk.

It gets better. Twice passing through ATL on my last rotation they tried to board without asking the FA's if they were ready (they weren't) and the first class pax got to wait in the jet-way (90F+, noisy, your typical pleasant jet-way atmosphere). I guess they could have climbed over the catering carts which were blocking the capacious galley of the 737.

I am not sure but this might be some new program - anyone else experience this?

With that being said, and I hate the D-0, D-3, D-??? emphasis, but I can kind of understand what they are trying to do. Some delays can be made up, some will build cumulatively throughout the day. I believe it is the latter that our crack management team is trying to mitigate. I have to agree though, that sometimes I am embarrassed by the very rude treatment of our passengers.

When was the junior 777 Captain hired? FO?
