Dal Won
#81
My seniority, pre-merger group, took about the biggest hit as a group (april 87) hire. The big downer is that my potential to retire on the 330 is iffy. The upside is that I think we may actually be part of something dynamic and positive. I love flying the 320, and god willing, and RA keeping his word, I may be a very happy senior Airbus Captain the rest of my career in Memphis. There are few bases, none as far as I know, that approach the old school friendliness and charm of MEM. And to you old DAL types, you will love the 320/319 and be very welcome in bidding into this bastion of Old Southern Charm. Water under the bridge. Time to move forward!

This thread is titled DAL WON for gods sake....
Just give me a second though and I will run out and start a campfifre....lets sing,
"Cumbia My Lord - Cumbia...Cumbia My Lord - Cumbia..."
Yah--right.
Seniority is everything...which is what this is all about...just wait till planes are parked and you have put in a little more time into this profession...like over 30 lets say just for grins...then we will talk OK.

It's 'Kumbaya My Lord' btw. Cumbia came from some Ron Jeremy movie. That is unless that's what you were referring to.

To quote "Hoot" in Black Hawk Down, Hey, "It's a whole new week, It's Monday!" I have a lot to be thankful for. I could have taken my Western Airlines class date in Feb 87' and been way up this list. I also would never have met my Super Premium, non-widebody wife here in MEM, never retired from a terrific ANG unit in same, missed out on a hundred Cayman layovers, like number of "illegal" overnights to almost a full night of sleep, stayed in my same house on a lake, raised two wonderful kids in a less stressful environment, and kept some semblance of my retirement. I've found what I was looking for, and it wasn't in an arbitrated seniority list. The hat and the Thurston Howell lll coat are probably my biggest concerns now. All the best to all DAL pilots and their families, I hope that you have the blessings I've had, and I look forward to doing my best for "Our Delta"
