I also flew the bus BOS to SEA, never a problem always a nonstop.

In the WSJ article they said buy instead of lease...

The WSJ also gets it right, "Delta expected to purchase..."

After watching the Cam Newton debacle with ESPN last year there were plenty of jumping the gun and headlines that didn't match the content of the article. "Cam Newton took $200,000 to play at Auburn" sub headline "according to unnamed sources."

Maybe he did and maybe he didn't, but almost a year later nada. So we'll see if we purchase 100 739s or not. Something tells me we are and we leaked the story to trump SWA's ATL announcement which didn't really warrant a "trump them" effort.

For the record, it'd taken more than a scholarship for me to go to Mississippi St too. :D

We have relatively new 752ERs (late 1990s) and 753s (2002-2003). 33 and 16 respectively.

There are 134 752s. They go back as far as I can tell to 1984. But cycles and hours trump age and who knows how many need to go. We have parted 757s out before...

My question is, since 2000 we've parked 762s, L1011s, DC10-30s, DC10-40s, 742s, 741s, MD11s, 732s, DC91s, DC93s, DC94s, DC95s, 727s and 733s. All in all DAL + NWA had 1060 aircraft in 2000 and 727 today.

And like a cockroach after a nuclear explosion, the 88 remains. (green smile face)

But, while we can order more 737s or even take a chance on the 321 later, I don't know if I'm going to be happy until 739 new orders > domestic 752s. But one thing for sure, whether 737 or A321, both are compromised airplanes but one is more comfortable and has greater potential for better engines.

The same goes for the "DC9 replacement" which I hope is more than the 172 DC9-10s, DC9-30s, DC9-40s and DC9-50s being replaced. Plus add in there 80 732s and 733s.

Til then, it's worth it to listen but

I did JFK-SAN on it also, no issues

Anybody else ATL feel that tremor?

I turned on the news after I felt it and it looks like DC got hit by an earthquake.

6.0 quake measured by the Richmond area. Hope all are ok.

What did you feel?

Talked to my dad, he was around the Tappahanock river about 60 miles east of where they say it hit. Just like the folks on tv said, 6.0 is localized damage but everyone feels it. He was in an old building that just rolled and people at the window said they saw the cars moving, otherwise no real damage. Phones were out but they're back.

The question is, did anyone at the PHF overnight try and take a sledge hammer and finish the job God started? :D

My question remains unanswered. Was the flight on an A319 (124 seats) or A320 (148 seats)? Most of the longer range mini bus flying in our current schedule that I see is A319.

Felt it. Harrisburg, PA Hilton 9th Floor. I thought someone was rolling a heavy cart down the hall at first.

I had just sat down on the couch to eat lunch (I'm in northeast atlanta around 20 minutes south of the legendary ftb) and it felt like a strong wind hit the house, but I looked outside and the trees weren't moving. Then after that initial hit passed I was getting wiggled on the couch very slightly for about 30 seconds.

So weird...

As far as I know it was done with the A320. DAL has had us do JFK-SAN with a 320 as well. No problem.
