Airtran 717s to fly for Delta?

[On Your Six]

Yes. Even in the hypothetical. Or you are no different than those you called out for the last 10 months. By the way; I don't care what happens. I just find it odd that you are beating this drum so hard, given your strong opinions about the AT/SWA SLI.

Being near the bottom, I would like to see some seniority movement sooner than later. We do have a bunch of retirements coming up, but new planes would be nice too. I am looking forward to any rumors or announcements. What's wrong with that? What does that have to do with my stance on SLI's? How would the AT guys come over to DL when you guys have already merged your lists? How would that work, anyway? (even in the hypothetical) Are there any SWA guys at the bottom of the list, or just all AT?


Godspeed!

The deal is with Boeing, not SWA. So no pilots coming over to DAL.

No AT guy becomes a SWA guy until they report to Dallas for training. A lot can and will happen between now and then.

That could be 4-5 years away for some. Do you believe that some won't make it? What are our other options?

Sorry, but if that is true, that is ridiculous. From what I am hearing any possible deal would occur as the leases naturally expire. So, as long as that is true, you would be fine. You are also getting a lot of new planes in the meantime. Some of the SWA pilots on this board are upset that the new planes coming in aren't growth airplanes if the 717s depart and are replaced, along with the older 737-300/500s. They are just angry. Don't let it get to you.


Godspeed!

Sure, why not. You may find yourself living in a shotgun shack. You may find yourself to be a bottom to someone else's top. You may find yourself (RSW right?) to be junior to a former 89th AW bubba and former AT shmuck 717 driver. Guess what? Whether you're getting gangbanged in Leavenworth or sitting right seat to a former trannie that flew the prez or the SST, you're no better or worse a person for your life experiences and accomplishments. So lose the effing chip mate.

Very professional of you, my little UPT boy. Grow up and pay your fellow and future coworkers some respect. I know this is your first airline and all but Really - do you have to act like that?
