Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?
I'm pretty sure the 88 and the 90 will capture the altitude in VNav even if the ALT is not armed. I don't attempt to do this on a regular basis, nor would I recommend it to my buddies.
I don't think either will capture altitude in VS or IAS mode if the ALT isn't armed, but I haven't played around on the 90 enough to act like I'm an expert.
I do watch the FMA like an expert when approaching an altitude, no matter what I'm flying.

If we won't build a model where we do our flying, then it is just a waiting game with a pretty certain conclusion. No airline in history has ever shrunk its way to profitability and we're unlike to be the first. That is what the market is smelling and the aroma is not putting them in a buying mood.

We need to figure out some way to owe all that money to Goldman, then we'd be in the same boat as AIG.

Here it has four options left, which is better than being out of options. It sucks to be out of options in an MD88.
