Are you familiar with the sterile cockpit regulation? Also, even a good pilot needs to pay attention to flying the aircraft during descent and landing.

I agree with you about the sterile cockpit and marketing dilemma. However let's try and keep this board about hiring / staffing needs.

Thank you Climbto450. The other board really went off subject.

Shouldn't this thread be in the 'Hiring' forum then?

I wouldn't argue that, I also don't have anything to do with that. I just think that if it doesn't have anything to do with the poolies then it should be on the latest greatest post not this posting.

For what it is worth, The latest from DAL is that if this TA passes (I think it will) then POSSIBLE hiring 4th quarter this year.

I was just gonna say...

I actually laughed at those emails. We are already in the red for Reserve coverage for the first week of July. But then again, I've heard that CrewScheduling sets a high buffer for maximum flexibility.

That sentence basically says it all about your screen name!

It's 4th of July week. Not really surprising that there aren't extra reserves....
