More than 100 pilots with Delta subsidiary Atlantic Southeast Airlines picketed outside the convention center where the meeting was held. They are unhappy about the failure to get a new contract with Delta. At issue in the ASA negotiations with Delta are schedule, wages and retirement benefits...
I think a good number of ASA pilots feel this way. It's not an attack against Skywest. I like Skywest. Just not enough to give up my position to a Skywest pilot. Unification is very important here, though and getting that done would be a high priority.
Hey if it wasn't for you FedEx guys riding my jumpseat I wouldn't have half of the recommendations that I think I have. You guys are always welcome even if we don't have cass. I really gotta stop handing out my social to every guy dressed in a FedEx pilot uniform who gets on the plane. I've been...

I heard a rumor that there are 800 applicants on the call list for an interview. This sounds too me like an unrealistically high number. Any insiders care to comment?
I appreciate all the help from you folks at FedEx. I'll give this up soon but until then, does anyone know if there are interview calls going out this week? If one was to make the call list at a certain interview board does anyone know how long to wait before following up?
