Oh Delta. So pathetic

Then they took off, into the sky, with all the other airplanes.
In order to practice more Pac-NW ops, which they clearly are horrible at, they're going to fly seven 737s a day into SEA from LAX, all summer long!
That'll get those 737s and it's crews ready for next winter's fog!
You still won't post what day this was, because you know they were in the air minutes later and probably made A14 at their destinations.

Yes it did. Except us.
You know, we pioneered the use of a HUD. We pioneered RNP. We can land on gravel (although not these days). We know what it takes to run an airline in adverse weather conditions. We are 80 years in this business and going stronger than ever. Someone said, nervous? That would be a no.

Seems you've pioneered that too...
You know what would be funny? If someone from the FAA were reading this, then they checked on YOUR flight, and found out YOU took off without a legal T/O alternate!

I am a member of one of the airlines that is part of this wine session... but am embarrassed to even read this discussion as it builds and to consider you members of the same profession.

Oh and we'll be sure to tell the HAWKS to GO. We see them all the time, as we are the official airline of the Seattle Seahawks and fly them all the time to and from our hub in SEA.

Right. We will be defeated with your takeoff alternate awesomeness. Our days in SEA are clearly numbered. Meanwhile we will keep building a huge SEA hub.

Seatac has been down much of the week due to low vis. So has much of the PNW. The only TO alternate available for us was Klamath Falls. As we taxied for takeoff we heard two Delta flights ask ground to pull off in the run up area because they figured out that their ops specs did not allow them to use Klamath as an alternate. I hope the passengers on those two 737-800s enjoyed the parade of Alaska aircraft taking off while they sat waiting for the weather to improve (or until management got their S together)
Way to build a hub Delta!
