Fed busted with a gun on flight...
Commuter pilot with a funny. Many of those FAA workers "who can't" are better educated than you, make more than you and are in demand worldwide for their engineering expertise. You? Just a commuter punk. Enjoy....... -

Q3 at Delta: $1.6 Billion profit, $431 million higher than last Q3
Delta will offer us 6-8% date of signing and 3-4% a year. As usual, 60% will vote yes and 40% no. Pilots need to keep in mind we gave the most and were the ONLY employee group to have it's DB plan terminated. Tired of the argument if we get x then the other employee groups must get it as... -

Delta pilots-accuracy in reporting re:your contract
Fifteen years at Delta and fly the 737 as FO. Take home typically about 7k per month. That does not include any other compensation, DC plan etc.. Our 3% cola this year was totally inadequate considering our profits. Hourly rate still well below what it was in 2000 and that does not take into... -

End of year paycheck
Why not? I have voted no on evey TA since C2K. Anything less than c2k rates adjusted for inflation is another no vote for me. Don't even get me started on scope. Does $$ dictate how happy you are in your life? Best of luck to you... -

Where to live in ATL area?
ATL native. Grew up in Sandy Springs. I would look up the 400 corridor from S. Springs/Dunwoody up to Alpharetta and S. Forsyth. Great schools in Alpharetta and Roswell. E. Cobb is also great. Walton is an excellent school. Smyrna/Vinings is great but the schools stink. Never heard of... -

Delta Air Lines Announces $549 Million Profit Excluding Special Items
Interesting. I said the same thing years ago before Delta filed for bankruptcy. Since deregulation, Delta has had to compete against many airlines operating under chapter 11. Just one of many reasons for Delta's trip through chapter 11. -

Delta to hire 300 pilots this year
So you met the two with competitive quals? As long as affirmative action, ie, discrimination continues, its a valid point. As MLK said, colorblind society. -

Which airline to fly for....
Well aware as I have close friends there. I am also aware of their pay, retirement and the fact that they continue to make money in this difficult environment. Being furloughed at UPS for a short period is much better than never being furloughed at other companies. Just run the numbers... -

UPS, FedEx or seek a different career. The ROI no longer exists. -

Delta Pilot Accused Of Bringing Gun To Airport
Agreed. It amazes me how short sighted some people are. Need to think long term, 10,20,30 years down the road. My worst day at Delta is better than my best at my previous regional. I have friends who were furloughed for over four years and have never regretted leaving the commuters. A 10k... -

Delta Pilot Accused Of Bringing Gun To Airport
Pilots who "forget" a checklist item, should not be allowed to fly an airplane. I hope one day I can be perfect just like you..... -

Delta Pilot Accused Of Bringing Gun To Airport
I think you are the idiot for jumping to conclusions. Have you ever forgotten something? Could have been an honest mistake where he simply forgot the firearm was in the bag. TSA found it. No harm no foul. -
