Anybody here at Comair in the mid '80's?

Barelycorns is still around. I have never been there, but when I drove by last summer the place was packed.

It was always busy when I was there too; 20+ years ago!

And by the way, I went to WMU also! 1978 to 1980. (I went to a 2 year school prior to that.)

ahaaa.....those were the days....living in a 2 bedroom apt with a gun nut, guy that wore bikini panties and let you know it, a woman ramper, and woman who's only reason to being at CMR was to go back home and fly for TAM.

5-1988 to 9-2004......what a run

You were hired just 3 months after I left! I'm sure you knew McClure and Rogers.

Anyone remember the Cliffside party on Labor day where they launched water baloons onto I75 with surgical tubing?! Priceless!

Yes, I knew them, however, they were so high on the list it was like they were flying at FL80 in the SR71.

How about Bart Groeneveld (spelling?) Is he still around?

Bart is still around, just saw him in ops the other day.

Ya, I flew with Bart way back in 86(?). He's got to be as senior as God!

Looks like I am doing a 2 day trip with him beginning of June. Send me a Private Message if you want me to pass on a message to him.

Bart is #27 on the list - lots of old farts still here.

At the rate things are going, he'll probably be back on reserve in CVG by winter. Ha! Although, not far from the truth ~ I'm now a 9th year FO because I didn't want to go to JFK. A little strange being back in this seat again considering I spent twice as much time in the left seat as I ever did in the right. If we had some Comair West pilots to bitch about I would feel like I was at USAirways.

Well, if God was here at Comair he still wouldn't be able to non-rev and get on as he would be a S3C and below every Delta/NW pilot, FA, rampie, retiree, step-mother and janitor.

As a CMR Retiree I Non-reved AUS-DAB thru ATL two weeks ago and was first on the list or very high on the list both out of AUS and ATL (even got first class on ATL-DAB).

I'm guessing my Non-reving days are over when it comes to near full flights and more non-revs than seats. Exit row and first seats will be out of the question.

Thank you Delta Air Lines. Should I still pay the 50 bucks for the privlege?

Oh well I'll have to use my wife's travel points on DL and SWA when I need to travel or go in her C172 (are we there yet)
