DL (NWA) to pull out of PANC???
Bump
Rumor has it that DL will no longer be operating 74 Freighters out of Anchorage after 2009. Any legs to this rumor? What will they do with the basing of their aircraft... and also their valuable ramp spaces up there.... Time to sell out to Brown?? or Purple??

Here is the latest flying bulletin for FNWA:
747-200 (ANC and MSP)
The scheduled cargo flying level is projected to be at a slightly lower level for the summer and the rest of 2009, compared to the current level. Some of the impact of the schedule reduction is offset by the military charter operations; however, this will result in small staffing surpluses in all three B747-200 positions. The possibility of some displacements remains from all three ANC blockholder positions, but will be dependent on planned retirements and bid out activity which is expected to minimize the need for displacements. Displacements from MSP positions are possible, depending on where pilots displace to from other fleets. Relative base sizes are expected to remain unchanged.

747-400 (DTW)
The flying level in the fall of 2009 is expected to be at the peak summer levels which are higher than the current scheduled spring flying level. To facilitate the transition to DL scheduling and staffing rules, including the use of more CA augment, awards are planned in the CA position for the remaining months in 2009. As there is increased use of CA augment, the possibility of displacements off the FO continues. However the exact number of displacements off the FO position will depend on the number of bid outs from the FO position.
Why would we be flying this fall at peak summer hours plus why do the training if the flying is going to be reduced?

So let me get this straight. The 747-200's will be gone by SOC. The DC-9's will be gone in 3 years. The 747-44's will be gone in 3 years. 757's are being parked. The only airplanes on order are a 777 or two and about 18 787's which we might not see for years. On top of that, the company is ordering more 76 seaters for DCI than our contract allows. There are virtually 0 retirements due to age 65. Tell me how Delta is not going to furlough again. On top of that, let's say they do not furlough. The guys at the bottom of the list will always be at the bottom of the list. This company might go 15-20 years without hiring a soul.
