As far as a DAL staple, the thought, "When pigs fly out of my arse and dance an Irish jig" comes to mind. Our crusty codgers don't want it, and DALPA's codgers don't want us touching their jets. I'm sure DAL would love to buy a bunch of 100 seaters for us and put up like a 10 year fence, while telling DALPA "Hey...they're on your seniority list...sort of "

(Lloyd)-"So...you're saying I have a chance...whooo!"

A-ha-ha! You kill me...you really do!
An FAA inspector...really? Then it must be true!!!

And so now you've progressed beyond simple math, and can decipher hard to read graphs of projected retirements? My God, you really are an oracle, aren't you? (Did you see it here?)

What are you predicting next, oh great Sage of the Skies? Does Jet Blue need to hire 1 flight attendant?

Almost 2,000...then there's the AmEagle flow-throughs who already have a seniority # at AA....a couple hundred of those.

See how easy that was, Tail-blazer?...didn't even have to call my source at AA or ask an FAA inspector!

Source at Delta. Got it.



Now your source is at ASA?

So are these 100 new 700/900s the same as Comair's CRJ50s, or are they XJet's EMB145-700/900s? How does ASA get around Delta's scope limits?



That was May, and now it's August. Still waiting...



That was May, and now it's August. Still waiting...




So, how's Afterburner/Trailblazer doing so far? I guess when we look at September's bid packs we'll see ASA guys flying Freedom's DTW stuff, and Comair guys will be on the Compass list. And what will become of Comair's 28 70/90s? All 100 of them will be at ASA.

Rumor Fail.

Another "resignation" checkout epic. I guess this is in response to the maintenance aspa thing. Man I guess comair is running on zero tolerance. Something is up because they getting rid of the so called trouble makers.

It's funny that you bring up Titanic because that is what Comair is today.

Boomer, good job for pointing out all I posted. As you can see everything I have been saying is coming true. As for my source, I keep throwing you all off as to where this source is located by telling what I have posted. I cannot pinpoint where this source is located so I keep you confused. It worked on you great Boomer. Thanks for pointing that out to the others. I know its hard for you guys to understand what is happing with Comair but Im trying to help you realize you are on theTitanic. The truth will all come out by the end of this year. I have never drifted from that point.

And there you have it folks! For those that think it doesn't matter picking up EF, it does!
