I really do hope that Becky is leaving on her own terms (however doubtful) She really was one of the good ones

Retiring? That's not the exact word she used when she spoke to me about it. I seem to recall her words were more along the lines of "position" and "eliminated".

Delta... Good goes around.

He fell from the stairs on the jet way. Apparently both of his legs had to be amputated and he is paralyzed from around the lower back down.

I do hear RA and EB keep saying that Comair will remain a vital part of Delta. Right now their main focus is getting DL and NWA employees integrated and getting onto one SOC. The DCI piece of the merger is a very small piece and will slowly come together. Only Ng4 and those guys know what's really instore for us.

They sure aren't wasting any time at Furloughing our pilots, taking our planes and giving them to another carrier, getting rid of our other planes and moving the guys that run DCI up to MSP. For that matter have you seen how much people they have let go out of the GO? It seems to me that they are actually moving pretty rapid like with the DCI portion of this merger.

How about Mr. D. S. (pun intended)?. When is his "retirement"?. I know of some great pasture very near the airport. Now all we need is a gun.

This is bad news. I just happened to be at TYS shortly after this happened and 9E, DL and OH were all in a frenzy. I was told he was ran over by the jetbridge (at least one leg) and that he will most likely lose that leg. Didn't know it was both legs! My goodness...
