Also, you're so sure you'll be displaced to a bigger aircraft. Ever think you may get MD'd to DTW DC9 b?(if you get MD'd). Wouldn't that be funny???

That would be great. Got a bunch of classmates up there and I love to fish. Plus, I might buy a few 20k houses and start a crash pad business. Would you like me to save you a bunk if you get DTW? I have a special rate for angry guys who wish ill will on others.

Wow, you described yourself very well! But, on the off chance you're referring to me, how is making a comment about you possibly being displaced to DTW "ill will". After all, seems you'd be ok with that MD if you were awarded it. As you said earlier, you don't care where you go if it's not ANC.

No thanks on the crash pad, I'm based in DTW already and have bids, MD's and VD's in for a DAL base. If I don't get it, I'm content with the good commutable schedules I get now.

Also, 20k is a bit much around the airport. Hope it works out well for you, however there are many guys in DTW who did the same thing and can't keep their crash pad filled. Guess there's more supply than demand for DTW crash pads.

You remind me of my sister when she was about 8, always had to get the last word in. For that, I congratulate you sir...you win the battle of attrition.

Super, where are you anticipating to end up?

 

[Going2Baja]

On top of that, there are a bunch of Delta bubbas that live near here and were commuting to ATL.

What an enduring term...I bet that goes over like a fart in church when you step into the cockpit and say "Mornin' Bubba...."

Nice.

Baja.

 

[Going2Baja]

Why would u care? I thought u were elated to be in Alaska... Why come back to NWA/DAL?

I was 'elated' to be AT Alaska, not IN Alaska. As for the questions, inquiring mind want to know.

Baja.

Haha, now that's funny coming from a guy going on and on and on about the 330. Everyone got over those things months ago, besides, THERE IS NOTHING YOU (or any other DAL pilot) can do about it.

If we ever merge I'll take the bullet for you and bid ANC.

hopefully my recall rights get me back on the mini-bus, we'll see

ATL taking it in shorts. Lots of 76 CA & FO displacements with no replacement flying. Unless you are senior in your category in ATL you are about to become junior, or worse, bumped out of ATL altogether. Pretty disheartening after 9 years at D that I will be junior on the maddog in ATL. On the plus side - I have a job.

Where do you sit on it? Im about the 9 year point...hope I still SIT in ATL on it

Short Bus

That's SHORT BUS for you!:laugh:

 

[Superpilot92]

That's SHORT BUS for you!:laugh:

you must have flown with me :blush:

 

[Sinca3]

Do you think the 330 and 764 are on par with each other?

Yes, why wouldn't they be? Similar a/c for similar missions.....
and yeah, the 320 and 737 are similar or "on par" with each other also.

 

[ACL65PILOT]

Similar but not the same as they do not pay the same in the PWA.

 

[Sinca3]

Similar but not the same as they do not pay the same in the PWA.

Right, but the point I'm trying to make is that they are similar and therefore the same pay rate is justified. Along those lines I could see bringing the 73 and baby bus to the same pay rate....the higher of the two of course!!

 

[FmrFreightDog]

nevermind....

How junior do you think NYC M88A will go? Not a lot of prefs with only a few openings, but the unknown is how many will down bid in ATL and then have contingent displacements into those NYC M88A's?

Disclaimer: I hope it goes senior to me so I can keep pay protection in DTW and stay a non-commuter from my recent MD (low 9K #) MSP might be a bigger problem.....

 

[ACL65PILOT]

Fly, I have it bid on an MD and I am getting MDed so I am sure you are safe!

I think NYC M88A will actually go more senior on this bid. I suspect a lot of guys getting displaced out of ATL will go to NYC to stay on the aircraft.
