Latest Delta Rumors

[derg]

Apparently 50/month starting in January, continuing through summer.

12 additional A330s with 'increased gross weight' for Asia
30 additional narrowbodies
Additional 737-900s (which probably are replacing 757's)

Just passing on a rumor.

My connection was told that earlier this week too, but they were told classes a little earlier. Although there is some confusion on that part.

Endeavor pilots rejoice!

 

[killbilly]

Obviously NOT.

Now, if it had been a RUMOT that might hold a little more credibility...

 

[Stryder]

Endeavor pilots rejoice!

I am in the 800s at Endeavor Air. So what do you think, 5 or 6 years till I get my chance.

Only down fall is 41 of the 50 spots are already spoken for.

Let me know when they start hiring people because they're good at breathing.

Crew room people say 1-2 years. Haven't you seen the retirement numbers?!

But in seriousness I did get a chuckle out of the 30 copies of the SSP sitting on the counter in the JFK crew room. Like we should all be ironing our navy blue suit and going out to pick up a fresh red tie.

At a max of 144 pilots a year how is that even possible??

Next time one of your colleagues says this, tell them your friend at Delta laughs at thee as the retirement numbers "Ain't all that" due to a "relatively" young cadre of captains on the South side.

Turn down the first 500? Thats alot of interviews in 2 years

 

[ComplexHiAv8r]

Totally a joke. But some guys are really counting on the SSP. I try to be a good little FO and just nod and smile.

God, I hope you don't iron your suits...

How about startching your underwear? What's the guidance on that?
