    Side Commentary from “Extra things you had on your application…”

    Get over yourself. Weird, only Delta pilots on this forum think so highly of themselves and come off with a smug attitude.

    Side Commentary from “Extra things you had on your application…”

    Nope. I’ve realized my personal attachment to the NYC base was silly. My family was still a 6.5 hr drive. Between rest area stops, flying nonstop LA to PIT is almost comparable. And in-laws were in DTW, which meant we had to fly to go see them anyway. You’ll have to ask me when I...

    Side Commentary from “Extra things you had on your application…”

    Yup. And @EIR literally just wrote a guy bent a 767 and got hired at Delta. LOL. Absolutely pathetic. Did Delta run out guys not bending planes? It’s all 100% BS. Don’t justify his background. There’s literally a thousand+ guys out there that haven’t bent a 767 yet. Don’t care...

    Envoy Air - American's LARGEST Regional Carrier

    No of course not. It’s my fun jab (said in jest) to Corpies, the same way I do the Oh Delta stuff. It’s all in good fun.

    757 A/T failure

    Couldn’t care less. That was from 2016-19 for the NYC base. This topic has nothing to do with any of it. Of course, your Delta ilk likes to bring up Delta in the context of “you wish you were here” as their default insult.

    757 A/T failure

    I didn’t start this thread. Thread missing Oh Delta XXVII Better pilot? Clearly not - I’m not at Delta Monday morning QB? If you’d like to call it that. Our job is to learn from other incidents and accidents so that we can avoid those similar situations in the future.

    757 A/T failure

    Your dream Delta job became another job? How many majors did you quit just to land a “it’s just a job.” Lol yikes I’ve been a one twenty weenie since ‘07 and couldn’t imagine doing anything else. I love my job. I don’t even think of it as a job. I still have that same spark as I did...

    757 A/T failure

    No. Just use common sense about the geographic area I’m in to request a safe altitude. Didn’t ‘Arithmetic for Naval Aviators’ teach you Delta guys that?

    Does Delta do Captain charm school for the first Delta upgrade? We call it the 4th Stripe course, 2 days long, before heading off into the upgrade ground school.

    ...into the biggest, baddest thing so they can show off on social media. Or write a book. Click, like, and subscribe. Or posing with their Delta Captain hat while in a hammock. *BARF* I just got my shop’s new uniform pilot hat. I admired it for all of 10 seconds, and then placed...

    757 A/T failure

    ...as “something you can do, if you thought isn’t possible” is not going to happen in that timnefrsme. Be honest, how long before a newhire at Delta hired today Oct 2024 before he can hold 75/76 Captain? His timing was literally once in a lifetime. “This industry will throw you around...

    757 A/T failure

    Nah - I don’t have DeltaNet access anymore. Apparently Endeavor was cool - or he just didn’t care. But then after 15+ yrs at EDV and finally at Delta, they scared him from day 1 and he doesn’t give his pwd out anymore. (Yes, I know the policy prohibits password sharing).

    757 A/T failure

    See my post above. No shortage of these type of CAs. It’s cringe once you realize he’s not gonna make a decision. He expects someone on the ground to give him the go ahead to do (something). There no command authority. I would actually be curious to know his total time at the...

    757 A/T failure

    ...an AP or AT issue. Manually climb the airplane (like they were, handflying anyway) and get up to at least 5,000 ft. Second, I’m shocked Delta policy allows pilots to directly talk to MX in flight. We used to do that. Until one day, MX took a crew down the wrong rabbit hole on a...

    Spirit Furloughing

    Says an ex-pissed off Spirit pilot who is now holier than thou at Delta? Have some empathy for those “still” at Spirit.

    Alaska BNA-SEA takeoff abort

    AS buying VX was to eliminate a competitor and to stop jetBlue from buying it. VX was dismantled. A boutique LCC gone. I don’t think SW was in BK when they bought AirTran. I can’t believe there’s pilots who actually think JetBlue-Spirit would’ve been bad for consumers. The 6th...

    Alaska Flight diverted after pilot admits he isn’t qualified to land

    Now this is a good impression, @derg is this a Delta level compliment? @Maximilian_Jenius for all the stuff you write that I lack empathy, sociopath, etc, here is a grad student who studies psychology and leadership, and she seems very impressed. Apparently I have empathy, calm, and a good...

    Sad end of an airline amenity

    ...As the pandemic started, everyone started ditching this common touch item. My shop was gone quickly and never brought it back. Same with Delta. AA hung on a bit, but gone. And now, the last remaining United Hemisphere magazine will be no more. A sad end to a wonderful amenity...

    The Mega Outage

    We got jokesters here. Gulfstream PFT was buy a job. Jet U was not. And no, I’m not spending money on Delta.

    The Mega Outage

    Airlines* I feel that the next computer crash that affects Delta is going to be because it didn’t recognize Air Lines as two words and got stuck in some fatal error loop. ;) And no, it’s the day I go back DTW-LAX. I do that commute in the summer when I see family. That is, if Delta can...

    3 weeks off here :) Dear Delta, please have your problems fixed by July 25. K thanks bye

    Oh, Boeing

    Yes. That, or accept it. No one likes a complainer. I’m done with the whiney ones at my shop. Now my standard answer is, oh you don’t like it here, so when are you leaving for Delta/United?

    Oh SWA…how many is this?

    Calling taxiway Delta as Doofus is approved by me! Those two belong in the same sentence son :)

    Oh SWA…how many is this?

    Says the guy whose group was too afraid to think taxiway Delta would be confused with the airline name and made the airport call it Dixie? You don’t need to be told to turn right on Dixie. You can be told to turn right on Delta. That is a clearance to turn onto a taxiway. Not to hit...
