Ftb or 80, insert picture here.

Well, first I searched for "flowers and fish." Nothing good there. Then I went for "fish poop."

Subsequently, I found this picture:

Really doesn't have anything to do with anything, but I should have cleaned up the douche posts that were still "hanging around." No bias here.... just wasn't around.

Delta's challenge, with Southwest coming to town, is going to be to fill Hartsfield Jackson back up again, as it has always done to both maximize connecting opportunities for passengers and keep out competitors.

Specs for the new facility, set to go on line in April 2012 are:

* 1.2 million square-foot terminal and concourse complex, large enough to accommodate 13 New World of Coke museums
* 12 wide-body capable international gates, convertible to 16 narrow-body capable gates
* In-line baggage screening system
* 9 security checkpoint lanes for international departing passengers
* 6 security recheck lanes for domestic connecting passengers
* 1,100 short-term parking spaces in close proximity to the terminal
* New facility will ease load on existing domestic gates by providing gate capacity during international non-peak times

Bar, you ever seen this?

By the way, I think I have our IROPS issue solved. Especially when gates become an issue.

Do illiterate people get the full effect of Alphabet Soup?

Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are flat?

Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but has to check when you say the paint is wet?

OMG I know, a friend of mine over there actually thinks AT pilots should, and by decree will, be both stapled and all be made to do a year of probation so the ones that aren't "RSWA" can be cleansed from the system. I kid you not.

as I recall it.

The monies ( one million for each side) were collect and placed in a separate independent fund from the MEC's finances. These monies will be used to pay for disputes as determined by the DRC. Long story short the SLI funds are not part of the MEC surplus or regular budget.
