If "emotional" includes humor, then yes. Gallows humor, often served with an overly-arrogant helping of sarcasm. Sometimes I invent my own irony.

But I ran out of FUD back in 2008, if that's what you mean.

ACL, who told you that you were dead wrong on your interpretation of the ramifications of the contract over and over?

I thought he was a Delta sniper for FDNY while he waited for his B-2 class date. DiverDriver would know more though.

PS - Speaking of writers and fact checking - Denis Leary article in Delta's July Sky Magazine, pg. 54 - New York's Fire Department is abbreviated NYFD? Really, Sky magazine? Where have you been since 9/11? It's FDNY. Thanks for trying really hard though. Your article on the best oyster bar in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia was spot-on.

on another note, too bad Mitsubishi didn't just combine the good looks of the MU-2...



with big turbofans bolted on top of the wing.

Ha ha. You guys still have black helicopters flying over your homes. You wanted a homerun, which was never possible. This contract helps us, and that is a fact. A lot of you guys have bad cases of paranoia, and it shows. And you already know this, but I stated ACL knows the specifics of the contract, in written form. Have a great night.

Please remember, in 2015, when the MDs have been retired, and SkyWest is flying your 717s, that it is just business.

ACL, did you know you know the contract in written form? What does that mean???

We should have a new game, guess where Bill works. I'm going to exclude two airlines right now, Delta and Skywest.

Come again? I'm gonna need to see a quote in the contract where that one can take place... Heck, I'll bet you a cold whiskey you can't find that one in there.
