International F concourse. Easy KCM and the train ride is shorter to C and D.

KCM is much closer to the North terminal if that's where you need to be dropped off.

Default EV to 9E 200 rumor

Word around DTW is we are not slated to get as many 200s from EV as originally planned... we were supposed to get 14 for calendar 2017... we have taken 5 so far and on summer hiatus... 9 more are scheduled to come in the late summer/fall/early winter.. hearing now that is up for debate.. not sure why... I know they budgeted $50k/shell to bring them up to speed mx wise but we blew through the budget for the entire 14 in the first 3.. also we were told to possibly expect an announcement of more to come in 2018... that may be subject to change also... to be continued

Willing to bet we'd have been better off pulling 14 from IGM instead.

a good portion of the ones in IGM have engines removed and other assorted parts missing.. not to mention would all need a heavy check.. with the crab claw they use to pinch every penny daddy d gives to us... taking them from EV is probably cheaper... plus.. it seems to me they want to get rid of expressjet which is a whole different topic

Thanks for the idea. I'll be coming from the west side of town, but will explore this option too.

Was simming in Minnie today and rumor there is that the Compass sim will be moving soon. Mentioned putting another 900 sim in its place. Hmmm, why would we need another one?

Wish we had buddy passes, but that among other important topics are never on the negotiating table...

Not sure what to think, it seems people are happy with the way things are.

Talking to those who have them, they are almost worthless. Such a low priority.

we have asked about buddy passes repeatedly from the mx side... apparently they are a big abuse issue at mainline.. employees selling them.. the thing that bugs me about the pass update we just got... if you look on deltanet.... for mainline they waived the $75/flt day fee for transoceanic for parents.. but not for Endeavor... it still feels like we will always be the mailmans kid.... Ed B. must think... yes but of all our step children I beat you the least... thanks Ed.
