Airline Pilot Central Forums - Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?

Random question here. Has anyone on here gotten a vasectomy? And how long was the recovery before flying? My Dr said 3 days but that seems optimistic to me.

ED,

Congratulations, with 2011 nearing it's end, you get the "THREAD DRIFT OF THE YEAR" award!! :D

We need to cut this discussion off at the knees. If one is so lucky.

Btw, is there a connection to hot chick night and vasectomy by Tuesday? I think not.

LOL, that's kinda my point.

In particular the conversion of 700s to 800s along with the fleet commonality as pointed out by GK is the giveaway on the fate of the 717 in the WN fleet.

To reduce cost the only way forward for WN is larger aircraft.
If they start touching labour cost the savings will be diminished by the reduced goodwill by the employees aka "LUV"...

Ok, so who is getting the money from the auctioned slots at each airport?

If it is the carriers: Did DAL "sell" the DCA slots and LCC "sell" the LGA slots since that is who held them PRIOR to the deal, or did each "sell" the slots AFTER the trade?

If it is the FAA who gets the money......F that.

Agree!
10% fuel savings vs 15% fuel savings, which upcoming jet would you buy if you flew both current models?
