Ha ha once time in TYS we were waiting for a ferry permit to be faxed to us. I asked the gate agent/ramper/ops person what the fax number was so Dispatch could fax it to us. 4 hours later no ferry permit. After several conversations with dispatch and said ramper, he finally says "oh the fax isn't working. I just thought you wanted the number for some reason". Duh. Had to use Another airlines fax machine 4 hours later...

Don't try saying that the last six accidents have been regionals or had ties to accelerated programs on jetcareers, because some *deutche bank* will argue this point to nauseum that pilot experience actually doesn't matter. :confused:

Oh, don't forget the Air France crash and that Indian flight that almost crashed (until the captain run back into the cockpit to save the day) had low hour pilots at the controls (or not had fundamental airmanship skills).....Nope....nooooo connection at all :rolleyes:

Don't even kid yourself.......I'm not a religious man, but it was by the grace of god that the Delta Atlanta taxiway incident was not a total disaster. American in Jamaica, Continental in Denver, Alaska in Kodiak and many more. These were all luck my friend, don't toss stones in glass houses.

The mega-tools of 2012 should be any DAL pilots who vote
yes for a contract that allows increased 76+ seat regional flying.
