    Delta 717 problems?

    I flew my first DL B712 this morning from ATL-LIT (N929AT) and we had a maintenance delay in our departure due to a 'minor maintenance delay.' Since this was only the 5th revenue flight of this plane in DL colors, I didn't think much of it.... however, that same ship is coming back to LIT...

    Delta needs to pay pilots more

    American management needs a history lesson

    This was 9 years ago; FORT WORTH, Texas — American Airlines will lay off 2,500 pilots over the next year as it cuts costs in hopes of staving off bankruptcy, union officials said Tuesday. About 21 percent of American's 12,000 pilots will...

    Retirement plans

    Is this true? For Southwest's pilots, the number-one ranking means their plan "gets average plan participants to retirement faster than any other 401(k) plan in the country," says Bryan Lorenz, Brightscope's vice president of data. "A participation rate of nearly 100 percent as well as the...

    Things could always be worse

    The group had a limited supply of food... and no apparent prospects for rescue. With supplies dwindling, discussion turned to whether the group should eat the pilot.

    Jetblue Neeleman stock sales

    Dave sold about 100,000 shares last 2 months, about $1,000,000 per month. At that rate he can only continue for 6 years before he is out of shares...don't you love the airline business! Oh i forgot he was only making $1 per year.. for the talk shows.

    During the latest quarter, Southwest repurchased 32 million shares for $464 million.

    People need to read the whole story....did SW buy $464 million stock buy-back during last year's qtr.? Anyone think they might be trying to keep wages in line? If they had reported 3/4 billion profit in one qtr. the Dem's would have them before a congressional hearing for overpricing!!
