As far as everyone knows its still on, right? I know it's only a few days away and I have the class date offer in hand, but you never know.
People I've talked to in the last class say that Delta is not the type of place to leave people hanging high and dry at the last minute.
Hoping that's true.
If it calms your nerves a bit, the May 5th class is on the May seniority list. 18 I think.

thanks that helps, i'm sure it won't be cancelled, but you never know.

On a (somewhat) related note, I've been looking at the projected staffing 22D2 report (Pilot Resources and Scheduling, near the top on the right). It forecasts the number of pilots needed in September, and it shows a significantly smaller number than the February 22D3 below it (to the tune of 700 folks). Any experienced DAL guys know what to make of that? Is this the domestic cutback showing up? If so, why is it also reflected in the Intl categories (JFK ER, for instance)?

Thanks!

That is interesting. Might be able to get some insight on that tomorrow.

The May 5th roster is on the wall and I believe that I counted 21 names on it today. Congrats to them. We all near the bottom will be on reserve for the forseeable future but at least were here for now.

Here is my humble opinion. Anything can happen but.............UAL called there guys last minute and said don't show up...........NWA sent all there guys to sit FE reserve in Alaska........don't like it.........well there is the door. Delta.........a few slots were opened in every base..........works much much better sitting reserve for the next year closser to home don't it. Coincidence, ........you choose.

Say what?

Your post is incoherent. Good thing there wasn't a grammar test.
