But, I agree. JFK ER FO's can not be trusted

By the way... have I ever told you how great the commute is to JFK? There are a thousand flights/day with 90% seat availability... it's a piece of cake. You'll love it. Especially if you live in Florida. Oh... and all the trips are commutable on both ends no need for a crash pads either, but even if you have to stay overnight, hotels there are really inexpensive. :eek:

A world class pilot lounge awaits those with winged chests to satisfy their every aeronautical desire. With state-of-the-art computers, printers, and luxurious furniture to rest up before the big flight. What's that, you heard a storm actually blew the old-ass roof right off of half our pilot lounge?? No, no, no............ you must be thinking of a different NY airline (not air line) operation. Trust us.......

Maybe so, but nothing says "New York" like our terminal. Now, if only we could get it smell like urine.

Ok, not really flame bait but a controversial post. I was in Rome yesterday and the gate agents who have been working Delta flights for years were complaining about the Airbus 330s that we have been putting on the ATL-ROM leg. They said that it is so weight limited that you can't fill it with people and cargo. If you use all the seats they could only put on 2000 lbs of cargo. They even had to put half of the Bus's ATL pax bags on the ER going to NY.

If this is true the future of the Bus IMHO is limited. Our network guys love the belly cargo. I have been told that some routes the belly would make a profit and the pax are just gravy. I don't see those guys sticking with a plane that doesn't give them that option. Maybe there are some routes out there that the Bus is better suited?

Any truth to this, Bus guys? Not trying to start a war, just passing on an anecdote.
