So, let me see if I have this figured out.

I make new icrew password the same as deltanet, now I'm in both, but not PBS which still should be using my old one. My vru pin may or may not be set up, but the password I have been using on vru will prob stop working. Then, I have to change this every 90 days to some ridiculously complex sh(t that I will have to write down to remember.

Serious question-seriously-is this supposed to be some kind of an IT improvement or just **** me off once a quarter?

I can log into my bank on my phone with 4 numbers and deposit a check you just handed me instantly with technology apple stole from area 51. Delta needs to get some of that.

If it's the same as fNWA, the vru didn't rotate. I don't understand the PBS thing as that was the same as the others too.

Technique only. I had a non-dictionary 5 letter string of letters and tacked on 001. 90 days later it was the same letters 002 etc. Never had to write it down and if I forgot where I was, I was never off more than one number for the retry.

Anyway, I hope they open up some other areas of they system with this supposedly more secure system. We'll see.

I know I'm stupid and this is, perhaps, about the 15th time I've axed this question. But how do we post pix? Gotta save them to the hard drive, and then what?

Buzz, you have to upload the pic somewhere on the web so you can have a link to it. You can then post that pic by using the "Insert Image" icon (5th from the right on the second row of icons when using "reply") and putting the link to the pic in the window that pops up. There may be an easier way of explaining it, but that's how I post them.

Hey RA, just buy the damn things! Having flown them I know it will be the great "elusive 100 seater" that DAL has always wanted yet never seems to be able to find. Carries 117 folks on 4800ish pph.

I had an AT jumper up front the other day...He said the 717 is a POS and it has lots of MX issues.

That's not the first time I've heard that, but it bears knowing....Just because it has an updated cockpit doesn't mean the engines and other moving parts are reliable....

That doesn't sound so bad when you figure we are burning 7500-8000pph to carry 125 on the 9's. Those are some fuel hogs!
