Please remind DALPA of that.

Also, ACL65, for some reason my PMs and avatar selection options have been disabled. Can you hook a brother up?

And Delta still hired you? You must have known somebody since I've seen you fly.

Joining the reserve discussion a little late but check this out, I'm a junior reserve guy ATL88B and still have a RAW of 0 this month. Twice this month I was the number one guy on the list and trips were awarded to more senior res peeps who from what I could tell didn't have YS in. Again it happened this morning, I was the number one guy on the list with a RAW of 0 and a more senior pilot with a higher RAW score got assigned a 3 day for tomorrow. I seriously think there is no rhyme or reason to scheduling reserves. Either that or someone must have told the scheds I'm a horrible pilot and person and no one wants to fly with me

I was a little shocked to see DAL stock at 10.30 a share this morning. I knew it would go up but I was not anticipating 8%. Can anyone remember the value of our stock that was given to the pilot group? I thought it was around 9.25 but I could be way off. From the investment people I have spoken with and from the forecast that I have read (Bloomberg report 01/12), analyses are saying it should peak at 16 a share by the fall. Does anyone see this happening?

I am wondering if now is the best time to get rid of the stock they gave us so I can actually start making $ with it.

Thanks,
BFS

Which 737s is it of which you speak? The ones that have yet to be built?

I don't fly internationally much. Does anyone know if you need a European style plug for our hotel in GRU or will an ordinary plug work?

Thanks.

Actually, it was around $4 when we got it. I dumped mine recently.

Does anyone know when the new "raw score" bucket system is going to be put into practice?
