Delta acquires more MD-90s from Japan Air Lines

And the seemingly incongruous remark---
"That strategy will continue next year, when Delta will begin accepting deliveries of new Boeing 737-900ER aircraft, which will be used on domestic routes."
So why bother with ETOPS?

Maybe it doesn't cost much? I wonder. Where is the G&G show?
Maybe it's like buying a truck and going ahead and getting a 4x4 even though the only time it will ever go off road will be into the flowerbed. It just is worth having in case you want to one day use it off road or it snows.

Does anyone here save the category lists from the company? I am trying a little experiment to see seniority progression over the last few years and am missing a few months of the category lists. Please PM if you can help.
One other thing: these are further back than you can get by just changing the dates on the company website.

Just finished a 22 day Mil leave, and on the transit home we broke in SNN, spent two extra days there. Let me tell you, for the guys that like an occasional libation, those guys and girls in Limerick know how to get thier booze and rock star on! That place is for professionals! If you have ever wondered if your couple a day here and there might be an issue, go there, that place will make you feel good about your level of imbibement!
On the walk out to get some dinner around 6pm, witnessed a 50ish yr old patron leaning against a building on a random corner downtown, while urinating and vomiting at the same time.....wow, they take thier drinking seriously in Ireland!

FWIW, last year AerSale also bought 19 JAL 744s...
AerSale is dedicated to excellence in flight equipment leasing and spares support. We specialize in providing lease aircraft and engines to airlines worldwide
Here's a quick thought, If the MD88 doesn't get the cockpit upgrade soon, here is what the endgame 3-5 years down the line would look like...
117 MD88
16 MD90
34 DC-9
167 Total
65 MD90 (board approved max)
80 717
25 Saudi MD90 (if added to the fleet)
170 Total
The A319 is a negotiating position just as GK saying he will park painted and WN configured 733 and keep the "unwanted" 717 by spending money on paint and new interiors...
Let's hope we don't get the A319, we already know it won't make money on the shuttle and must be replaced by 76-seat RJs...
Cheers
George
