ASA to furlough?

[DrunkIrishman]

Spud-

I don't think it is my problem for saying guys should operate per SOP's. I am sorry you think it is me that is the problem. I was addressing those that say they won't use it.

Yes, at FL310 you should hold with selection of half bank I suppose...but then again I had guys that would turn off half bank in the hold above FL316 on a regular basis citing turn radius and airspace protection.

CI should not be a problem. If it is, it is your responsibility to address it by flying appropriately and then contacting your CP...not to mention filing some company paperwork.

This stuff isn't rocket surgery for goodness sakes!

CI has shown a holding speed of 191 at FL310 and yes, it corresponded with the drift down speed.

But drift down is likely wings level, whereas holding includes a standard rate turn and a corresponding increase in stall speed.

How much of a stall buffer do we have during the turn?

I don't know, actually, but I can find out and PM you.

I do know that in a recent example the hold speed at FL310 was like .55, and the 1.3Vs was near .45, and that seems like it would be adequate margin. I don't have specifics, but I can get them for you.

A PM would be fine but it seems that the biggest obstacle CI has (or any new program has) is fear of the unknown, education os obviously to key to overcome this.

Could you initiate a Q&A program with the minutes compiled and periodically distributed through ourasa?
This would allow specific situations and educated replies allowing acceptance or quicker acceptance of CI.

It should be illegal for a woman weighing more than 200 lbs. to EVER wear shorts!!!

 

[Oakum_Boy]

It should be illegal for any woman to weigh 200 lb.

You gloat and laugh at DAL offering early out programs, yet get offended when your airline looks at cutbacks. What a hypocrite! 50 seaters will be cut, DC9 flying will increase(last weeks award of A LOT of DC9 Captains AND DAL asking for DC9 IP applications is the first sign).

crj567 your posts show it's obvious you have no clue what is going on at DAL. Keep your busch league comments to yourself!

To all looking at a potential furlough, I feel your pain. I've been there. It's just the cyclical nature. Most of you were hired during a good little boom at the regional level, unfortunately you are now experiencing the downturn. Hang in there, things always turn around(hopefully sooner that later).
