Turkey Bacon, that's the crap they serve in Kuwait. I tried to explain to a waiter, that Turkey Bacon is not Bacon. Bacon is made from pork, it's Turkey Strips.....

Ironic, those folks won't eat pork because it's "unclean," but they have no problem swimming in the Gulf, which is where their raw sewage is dumped, and one of the most polluted armpits known to man.

FYI: AP is a bacon eating Mofo!

Mea Culpa. The merger is the third rail. You probably share our disgust with outsourcing and you are correct in the snapshot zombiepocolypse of 2008. When we were financing fuel at (what was it, 14%?) it did seem unlikely we would survive. So let me re-phrase the question:
Where's the bottom?
I forecast last fall would be the last big downbid, but now it appears the company is going to push at least 350 to staff the Douglas jets. Do you have any prognostications when things will turn around?

If they start to offer leave of two years or greater those Chinese contracts will look really good! Perhaps that's when they'll call it a furlough

I would think the DC9 guys in MSP and maybe some in DTW would go to the MD88/90, since 21 are coming this year, and 8 next year, and the -9s are on the way out. A pay increase is included going from the -9 to the MD88 too. There may be some movement from some higher up positions, but that may give some senior guys the push to think about taking an early out if offered. Eventually those widebodies will all come back from the cabin and crew rest mods, and that will induce more upward movement.
That's nice and all and I used to be into the turbine mix but since the 88 I've come to appreciate the past. So for $310M...

I don't think I have to identify the thing now do I?
btw that peninsula will come with it. And so shall that mountain.
