1A) Being Delta-owned means everything.

1B) We're gonna get this new contract done in a month (Skippy Barnette in my recurrent ground class in 2001 before the old contract was amendable)

1C) The Company "recognizes" the crew's nutritional requirements (but does nothing about it except allow us to starve)

hahaha.. I love it all.. Classic.
I saw 2 900's on skyworst ramp today. Mmm I guess they better take care of our aircraft huh.

Don't forget the PDA's for W&B!


Only a few kinks in the software and the Developer (a NWA pilot) is just finishing it up. The "Wiz-Wheels" are going away.

 

["GO AROUND"]

"The pilots get crew meals at ASA." "Right?" From Skippy Barnett

How could I forget:

"You have been bought by a great Company..... ASA now has an excellent future..."

 

[GreatView]

"You'll upgrade in two years"

.....fast forward 4 years into the future (2006).....

What happened?

 

[av8er2]

.....fast forward 4 years into the future (2006).....

What happened?

I wonder if ASA will be here!

 

[Seahawker01]

SH - "Sign a pay cut and will get the money back in the form of Performance Plus".... oh by the way we are getting ACARS.

 

[bacardi]

we are hiring more rampers in atl (it took a few years to realize we are short staffed,)i guess that means we will be getting more baggage carts for them to take naps in.

 

[bacardi]

oh yea, how could i forget, dfw is going to stay a domicile,

"SLC is going to stay a domicile, there are no plans in closing it"-- brian brokeback told a new hire flight attendant class a week prior to the slc closing announcement

 

[wms]

"Delta has not made a decision to file ch11", DAL mgmt the day before they filed ch11.

 

[wms]

DAL will not shrink to profitability. JG right before DAL started shrinking.

 

[wms]

RJs should not be flying more than 2 hour legs. JG right before the DAL pilots signed the concessionary TA and the number of CRJ flights greater than two hours went WAY up.

 

[John Pennekamp]

George and John are leaving and Delta's buying us... oh wait, nevermind.

 

[Muff-N-Man]

"We will not have a LAX crew base" - SH to recurrent class.
