It usually takes them a couple of weeks to come out with the projected category and training lists.

While I'm typing... I was an ER guy until the 1st of April, then became a domestic guy, now awarded back to ER. I guess I just have to do WWO and TOE again, right? Seems kinda silly to need any training at all, but I guess it could be January before I convert back.

Who's cancelled more orders, Republic or Delta?

They have a monopoly on ATC services.


And they don't have to worry about working for a profitable company. If the government can't pay their salary, they will just raise the taxes. :rolleyes:

Now now... can't go bashing the gubbamint just because they are incompetent. Remember.. it is all Bush's fault anyway.

disregard the question...

I guess it is interesting that the bottom four guys on the entire seniority list are going to be NYC ER guys.

Hey Guys,

I recently flew with a senior F/O and I was trying to understand why a 10+ year guy would be sweating his but off on the DC9 with me during the summer. I am sure he could hold a block on the 7ER or the Little Bus. Then I found out he was a instructor. Is instructor pay that much more than a normal line pilot? I know what the deal was at NWA, but is it still a good deal at Delta? Inquiring minds and all...

Thanks

Is this a rhetorical question?

How about how many Republic aircraft were ordered for Delta flying?

And how many MD-90s has Delta ordered? 16. How many do we have, 50 and growing? Can't remember.

How many 737-800s did we defer or sell? And whats wrong with doing that?

What are talking about here? I'm confused.
