oss the terminal to catch a flight back home to Arizona.
I was DFW-based for almost four years and had never been east of the Jack In The Box by the Drury Inn and never north of Grapevine Mills mall!

Ahah that's the only part of Texas I've been to!
Congrats on the er, the salt lake city and the -90.

Well Ok MR.
I go out to ONT a lot, so dont quickly assume. If im in the terminal they have an applebees, it would be lunch on me.
I dont think i'd want to hang with an adult either, hence its lunch at his work.

So far, the SLC MD-90 has been a 1000% improvement over being based in ATL.
People.....GREETED me this morning, noticed that I was a new guy and helped me get acclaimated to the base and gave me helpful hints.
I walked into the Chief Pilot's Office to get my SLC ramp pass and they were helpful and friendly. Holy cow, it's NICE!
I LIKE it!

Cool...hows my old stepping grounds tonight (CVG). Still slack jawed and inbred?
Or are you in Cincinnati...which isn't too much of a difference?
Hey...can you clear up something? Some one on here said that DL doesn't operate 88's into SLC due to performance issues.
Can't be sure if I remember seeing DL 88's in SLC the many,many times visited friends there.
But I know for a fact that I have seen AA 80 series aircraft operating outa SLC.
Can you confirm or deny either story?
Lastly when you showed up today did they know you were the famed Doug Taylor of Jetcareers fame and greet you as such...

S'up Matthew!
I'm actually laying over in CVG this evening. Not that impressed with the city, but I found a place that actually served bar snackies after 2200 so life is ok.

For the most part, yes, but there have been MD-88's that have operated into SLC due to reroutes or abnormal ops. On a cursory level, the statement is true, but considering SLC is 4432 (approx) and DEN is 5431 and I've operated a number of regularly scheduled MD-88's in and out of SLC with a higher density altitude than SLC, I think it's more planning than it is actual performance limitations. The furthest west I've seen MD-88's scheduled is TUS/PHX/DEN/LAX whereas the MD-90's are normally able to be scheduled system-wide.
I've seen AA S80's in SLC. Methinks it's because of lighter planned loads and/or smalller aircraft. Consider that an MD-88 is nothing more than an MD-82 with more seats (read: less performance) and an MD-90 is nothing more than an MD-88 with more power and more seats.
I think it's more maximum performance load planning than it is absolute performance planning. Besides, I flew a full MD-88 out of KRNO to KDFW, including fuel reserve to be able to make KLIT and had a few thousand pounds of tolerance to work with on the climb/performance limit.

Plain old Doug Taylor which is the way I prefer it. I'm actually a very private person.

Eh!...I wasn't in the beginning either. It was just a welcome change or pace from AZ the first couple of years.

It wasn't a bad place. Good character, good bartenders and not a whole lot of money. Luckily I have good "public transportation face" so I didn't get bothered trying to find the place.

That may not work just down the street in "Over the Rine" if your in DT CVG!

Well maxing out is just dumb. For example who cares if one could bench 250lbs. if they can only do it once. And need a spotter at that.
The truth measure of ones strength is being able to do reps of a higher weight level. Thats when you know your strong!
Jus a lil FYI...
