If this was right after the taxiway M landing, I could see a correlation to that.

I think the ILS is out too, so there is no navigation to the runway. On top of that I believe the PAPI's are also ots and they look to be working on adding that 1000 feet for the KAL 380.

#2. I only posted the link because this thread is getting SOOOO effing depressing, that I thought we could all use a laugh. Lighten up, brother. Smile more, and try to do some good in the universe.
#3 As it stands, 400+ people have followed her link to the charity to help support it, and we're up to $65.00 in page view revenue for donation.
Again, it was NOT my intention to be "tasteless". I thought I could share a laugh with my Delta Brothers, and help support a very worthy cause.
Herman,

We're enjoying it at Casa de FFD. Keep it coming.

Thanks for the reference !

Am I the only one worried about getting steamrolled by DALPA into a horsecrap extension, when we have once-in-a-career leverage?

based on the contract wording (as cited by ACL65 above), I find you to be full of sh!t.

It's almost as pathetic as some mods on this site plugging sponsors in this thread.

I'm logging out. Perhaps I'll lurk (without logging in) from time to time, but this is getting ridiculous.

Are you really dense enough to think that a mod gets a kickback from any ads on this site? People logged in at the same time don't even see the same ads- it's generated by some sort of software that displays ads depending on your location and such. The guy you're accusing of plugging doesn't even see ads because he uses a blocker!

Truly amazing.

I'm with you. Unfortunately this union has a history of thinking for it's members often without asking. If they were to do this they would be replaced plain and simple.

If the extension is agreed to by the MEC prior to the Section 6 process beginning, they absolutely could do it without MEMRAT. After Section 6 begins they would have to get MEMRAT...unless they just amend the policy manual language.
