That FOM was taken directly from the online pubs section on deltanet, not my surface. Not sure I can be more up to date than that, unless the moderators there are using old stuff.
Keep in mind that regardless of what the FOM says the contract governs. Some new hire pilots are confusing the company policy to obtain a PS seat with the actual contractual language which is what would apply in the event of a no show. |
It would be pretty hard for the company to give you a positive space pass to get to work, if your backup choices are on other airlines!

Actually, the latest update to the FOM Commuting Policy can be found on the Flight Ops page under "headlines". It is dated 18JUN15 and supercedes the change in the MAY FOM change which was published in error. The latest version essentially says that the Primary flight can be on anybody: Delta, DCI, or OAL (Other Airline). The Backup flight is supposed to be on Delta or DCI

You need to update your FOM. That was a inadvertent change corrected since.
EDIT: NM, I see you responded above. Missed it when I quoted. |

Yeah, no income tax is awesome, but from my research, Washington has above average cost of living and taxes so they must make up for it somewhere. I have seen a few places in Gig Harbor that we could probably swing on the top part of our price range.
I think I'll just have to visit and see. What about SLC? Is the air quality as bad as everyone says? A few pages back some guys were saying Park City is a great place to live, but I couldn't find any houses less than 700K that weren't a condo. The properties in my price range were empty lots. Also, i hear a lot of different opinions on the strong LDS influence on everything. If you are in SLC, the LDS issue won't be a problem while your kids are smaller. But, once they are teenagers, it will affect them. Many activities will be church sponsored and your kids won't be included. I have friends with teenagers and it's a problem. I left PC 25 years ago. I liked the skiing and the outdoor lifestyle. My wife hated the place. We moved. |

Quick question for the new guys...
I've always been a book study-er. Now that we have the tablets, I am finding it harder and harder to study the way I always have. I think I'm transforming into a dinosaur. Is there a simpler way to study using the tablet? |

Yeah, my main goal right now is finding a place my wife is happy with that I can stomach. I know Atlanta has a lot to offer but I'm not loving areas to the south and the north side is good but traffic is killer.
Decisions decisions. |

If you think the traffic on the north side of Atlanta is bad, steer clear of SEA. It's horrendous. Everybody is forced into the I-5 corridor due to the water on one side and the mountains on the other. The bridges are huge bottlenecks, too.

True, but its not just "the 405" :D - you can basically draw a 20 mile circle around LAX between 0530 and 0930 and 1430-1930 and most freeways are gridlocked. And by gridlocked I mean dead stopped - pull forward 30 feet, dead stop pull ahead 20 feet - etc. :eek: Scoop |
