May you be right Spoils.

Just realized today I haven't non-rev in over a year. Those 50 bucks saved I'm sure were beerspent loooong time ago.

I don't doubt that at all; but what's weird is that DS came to our recall class and said his opinion of what was going to happen is very, very, very similar to what mosquito guessed! There is also the years long rumor that if the DTW thing doesn't work out, it will be a base in MEM or ATL! Either way, the rumors make it sound like JFK will be shrinking significantly.

Delta should just forget about hiring the 240 pilots and simply take all the pilots currently furloughed from Comair.... nobody hates the ALPA *******s at Comair who screwed everything up more than us...

Rumor alert!

JFK crew base to close, DTW base to open by Sept. 1. CVG stays as it is.

JFK mechanics apparently know all about it. It could be bunk, but the ramp guys in GSO knew about that crew base way before the pilots ever did. Contract says at least 60 days notice, so if true, we'll find out pretty quick.

You're almost right

1- NYC "JFK/LGA" will be a 70/90 base
2- New base at DTW
3- CVG will continue to shrink
4- Comair is overdue for a new president

Are you sure? Have you verified this with Trailblazer? He says that Comair is done by the end of the year, so how can this be?
