Default Hawaiian A330's at Delta?

This excerpt is a Tech Ops bukkiten from two days ago. It is refering to the removal of a LIDS logbook formerly on the NWA A330's. DAL only has NWA A330's.

"LIDS Retired from Delta Aircraft As communicated via EFCB earlier this year, TechOps began the process of removing the Log Item Deferral Summary (LIDS) from the logbook of "red" aircraft. This process is now complete for all aircraft except the former Hawaiian Airlines (HAL) A330s. Effective July 17th, Aircraft Maintenance Technicians (AMTs) were no longer required to insert the LIDS in the logbooks (with the HAL exception noted above), and there will be no reference to LIDS when clearing a logbook deferral. The LIDS process has been replaced by the Aircraft Discrepancy Report and Cabin Discrepancy Report, which are incorporated into the flight plan paperwork."

DAL does not have any A330's from Hawaiian....

Why would they be referred to as "former Hawaiian"?

I bet it is a misprint and should be 'former Hawaiian 767s' instead of 330s. . .

Nope! The bulletin was for only the A330 fleet.

I know.... I found that wording to be interesting/ominous/prescient also!

Could have been a misprint; should have been "for the" instead of "former". He may have been thinking "former red book".

My money is on a typo or poor wording. Delta does power by the hour on our 330s. Not hard to figure out why we'd be included in a mx bulletin. There are no "former" HAL A330s, nor are there any rumblings of the 4 we took this year (or any of the others on property / scheduled for delivery) becoming "former." Sometimes, a banana is just a banana.

There's a beautiful Hawaiian 763 at the TOC right now.

Like that paint job. Maybe if we merge we'll drop Delta and call the whole thing Hawaiian. So that Atlanta to Augusta is served by Hawaiian Airline... Hawaiian Air Lines.

Outsider looking in, but I've seen rumors on other threads regarding a possible Hawaiian acquisition by Delta. Is it the fleet type compatibility? Code-Share agreements? Just curious:-)
