JAL ends talk w/DAL stays with AA

[ACL65PILOT]

I guarantee you that you don't know anymore than the chief pilot at DAL. If management doesn't want the info out... they certainly don't tell the CP.... whatever you know, it isn't much. If you did know front office info, you would say anything in the first place....



ssssssh secrets....

Jeesh;

My point is that it cannot be discussed yet as it is conjure, and until it is leaked or talked about in the press, there is no point about talking about it.

Our CP is a very smart guy and has lots of info, but I hate to tell you, my info does not come from him, or flt ops for that matter. We are cogs in the wheel and are generally brought in very late in the game. Our only say is can we do it? As so as that is decided, we are just waiting for the launch codes.

Me thinks you mean conjecture.

conjure: to cast a spell, or produce through non-physical means.
conjecture: making assumptions to connect the dots.

This isn't done not because I know anybody or have heard anything but because its Japan and Japanese. The new CEO just will not be making such a big decision in a week...

I was not aware of the other definition. I suppose that was conjecture on my behalf.

I know. Got the same deal yesterday. Love on-line encyclopedias.

Heyas ACL,

Yes, it is FI, and we can only thank our fellow bretheren for keeping "The General" isolated to this particular venue.

He is mercifully absent from the places that have more meaningful communication.

This is a nice overall take on the continuing drama of AA DAL AND JAL...
