When a good majority of the analysts are forecasting this, sell 100% of your position. It has been my model, and it's worked well so far. I currently have my entire DAL stock position...so far.

LOL.. that is essentially what Cramer says too... he says that when the analysts show interest, the stock has run it's course.

Makes sense. You can't squeeze a sponge until it's in your grasp.

You're not kidding. If those numbers are accurate I need to find out how to get a job at ALPA.

It's funny that one of the web developers is named Charles Yeager.

Anyone know if the ALPA employees took paycuts when their employers did?

They are accurate. Unions have to provide that data to govt. I wouldn't leave Delta for one of those jobs though. Even though you would make a lot more money, they might be in for a layoff when we vote in the DPA. ;)

That's not funny...it's the real Chuck Yeager. When he found out what ALPA employees make, he gave up that test pilot gig at Edwards AFB. :D

Yes. Many of those salaries listed represent less than they were making during the healthy times.

On that note, would someone please refresh my recollection as to where the FPL resolutions made at the LEC level and forwarded to the MEC stand. The resolutions that reflect the will of the LEC members.

Hey guys I have a question. I was on RSV last month and was called on a long call day for a "how fast can you be here Green Slip" and told it would go above guarentee but at straight pay. When I looked at my check info for tomorrow's payday I only received regular credit /pay. It was a 6 hour GS so I thought it would be a 76 hour month but instead It only shows 71.

Is this because I wasn't over the GS trigger? I thought there wasn't a trigger for RSV's hence the rolling thunder legends, or is this simply because I took a GS on a long call day? :confused:

Thanks as always

You only get green pay for the time flown on days off.
If you were on a long call day when they called, then that day doesn't count.

Only the first Duty period in that instance goes over guarantee, or is paid like a green slip. The rest(day two which I assume is a regular reserve day) is paid and credited as a normal reserve day.
