As we witness the downfall of Latest and Greatest we should pause to reflect on past glory.
It is possible to retrace the evolution of Latest and Greatest. The moment of true revelation and cultural enlightenment occurred in December of 2009.
It was all 80ktsClamp's fault.
80 posted a bunny with a pancake on its head.
As night follows day, this led directly to the historic first underboob pic.
Superpilot92 then provided the spark that started the revolution. For his efforts he was recognized with another milestone. The first Delta pilot to be banned from APC.
The historic masterpiece photo has since been removed from APC and placed in the Smithsonian Air Museum, but I believe it was a young female of the well endowed yet scantily clad variety in a torn off football jersey flipping pancakes.
Creative genius and innovative thought is often frightening to the establishment. Think Galileo.
FTB of course immediately escalated the debate to indecent levels and way beyond tolerance:
And the coup de grace was delivered a few hours later when acl changed his avatar to the infamous "humping lizards".
From that moment on, the Renaissance had begun and its been all downhill from there.

WOW! The bunny with the pancake was post 20000. It seems like yesterday. I thought I was late to the game then because ACL already had 12000 posts at that point.
L&G has definitely morphed, but if (big if) those hiring rumors are true, it may return to its past glory. Lets hope so.

Keeping the DC-9's around is a good thing overall, but the downward pressure from all the backward movement means that I'll be stuck on the bloody thing for the forseeable future, even though I can easily hold the 320 or the 7ER and was planning on bidding over with the expected MD. I am OVER the 5 leg a day ATL shuttle flying. Done complaining now.... ;-)

I want to congratulate the poor ATL 88 FO that is in bucket 3.
While many are at 0 credit thus far.
I've flown a 1/3rd of what I'd flown by this point normally (and that's saying sometin) and barring a SC trip I probably won't fly again. And I still think this 80 raw score is wrong even if I'm benefiting from it. I think for a domestic NB take the longest trip in category plus 2 days of SC. That should be bucket 1.
For an international category, no idea. Ya'll figure out your own problems and stop asking the NB people to fix your messes. It's like what NASA told the crew to Apollo 13, "you got yourself up there, you can get yourself down."

My favorite was one of my Captains who didn't believe me that the seniority system figured into buckets yet....he's on reserve and an ALPA committee guy to boot. Great guy, great captain, enjoyed the trip, but yikes...bad info to be spreading around.

That appears to be the latest guidance from planning. I don't know if that accounted for the new plan for the Nine-o-saurus Rex to stick around for another year.
