    What's in a title?

    I have a pet peeve, and I need some opinions to help clear it up for me. If you worked for an airline and upgraded to Captain, your title at that time during professional situations was...Captain. I say professional situations because when said person is not at work, I would presume they do...

    XJ guy going through 9E training

    I heard the rumors and listened to all the horror stories of the Pinnacle training department along with the bouts people have with the North Mississippi Flying Club. As one of the first XJ guys jumping the fence to Pinnacle I want to set the record straight. At least for me. I have been...

    Fuel prices up and Delta Saabs stay

    Maybe a little good news for Mesaba's furloughs. A good source says that all of the Delta Saab flying is here to stay. Even some increase in the ATL side of the house. I don't find that all too surprising since oil is over $100 a barrel and more and more 200's are leaving the system. Along...
