What does it matter to you? Aren't you and 1000 of your closest friends leaving?

Did I say anything about the proposed DAL list? I think the DAL is closer to being fair but needs work as you have pointed out. Everyone has in their mind a list that they would like for them self but also knows what a fair list is. We just need to be a little more honest with ourselves.

The great NWA urban legend of the early retirements. Wrong. Yes we had guys leave early but the numbers were smaller NWA pilots think and also not all from the top. In addition, DAL retired L1011s, MD-11s, B767-200s, B767-300s, B727s and 737-200s during that time and that brought seat stagnation for most and furloughs to many others. It has been only recently with the new aircraft arriving that there has been seat movement. I'm still waiting for my "pot of gold" too.
