The beer at Spondivits is always cold! The Italian place next to the Comfort is the best place to eat and the bartendress takes care of the Delta boys and girls. She'll hook you up with a nice tall scotch, or dry martini, or whatever. That's the best place to "debrief" in my opinion. (The food's good too. )

The IAN approach with the new 73N software is sweet. Every approach is an ILS. No vert speed, no nothing. Hook it up and let it go. Its a beauty to watch flying into LAX on a 'descend via."

For the climax, we all got screwed and we're all hanging on crosses along the appian way, played by Virginia Avenue, singing and/or whistling in our best British accents: "You've got to look on the bright side of life..." just because it'd be funny.
So if ACL is Kirk Douglass, who has to be Tony Curtis...

This pull down will not result in furloughs. The last displacements planned for this if we decided not to do it, we would have had a reinstatement.
DAL is about 150~ or so pilot fat going in to the summer
Post SOC the joint company will be about 160~ or so short.

Needless to say go get your wives pregnant.

Now why the F%$* couldn't the company have said that??? Steve or ALPA could have taken 2 mins to send out a email or record his udate line? Why did we have to hear this from a web rumor forum??

read the other thread.
The guys I talked to this AM sounded like they knew what they were talking about. Hence the reason I posted it.
