Northwest Overshoot / Cert Action....

Re: DeltaWest Overshoots Destination....

I wonder:

a. Why in the world he's talking to the media

and

b. Why DALPA/Delta doesn't have security outside of his residence to keep the media away from his home during an active investigation.

They went to his house?!? There is no difference between the mainstream media and the paparazzi now days, that is unreal!

It's our company's policy (I'm sure ever company's policy) to stay away from the media unless you have permission, but given the circumstances and finding the media on the doorstep. I'm not sure if I'd not say anything while running to my car to the door, or how ever that went down....I feel for the guy.

The FO actually answers his own door from his own home to speak with reporters :banghead:

Have the NWA pilots been integrated with DALPA yet or are they runnin rouge?

Well I guess I don't feel so much for him now if he answered his door. That's easy, dont answer it. Still our media sucks.

Here is a sentence from the article above. To me it proves just how stupid reporters are:
Cole would not say just what it was that led to them to forget to land Flight 188.

I hate it when I forget to land....geeez.

I'm sure he had a few calls with choice words from Virginia Ave and ALPA as soon as they heard he spoke to reporters!:rolleyes:

I'd be surprised.

Remember that backroom conversation at NetworkJC when we were discussing how things work around the MEC? :)

Oh, they're good! They got their soundbite, packaged it up and sold commercial time on either side of it.

I don't begrudge the shark because he ate some innocent seal, that's the job assigned to him by mother nature.

Re: DeltaWest Overshoots Destination....

Oh Mr. Daley, you look quite perplexed!

...or are they runnin rouge?

Rouge? You think they should just have gone with their base makeup and no rouge?

Or do you mean with their eye shadow?

Or just French name for the color "red"?

Actually, there are a lot more definitions:

Rouge may refer to:
Rouge (cosmetics), a cosmetic used to color the cheeks and emphasize the cheekbones
Rouge (film), a 1987 Hong Kong film
Rouge (film journal), an online film journal
Rouge (football) or single, a score of one point in Canadian football
ROUGE (metric), an evaluation metric used in natural language processing
Rouge (newspaper), a weekly newspaper published by the Revolutionary Communist League in France
Rouge (pop group), a Brazilian girl band
Rouge (TV series), an MTV series about an Asian girl band
Rouge, Toronto
Rouge de l'Ouest, a breed of sheep
The Rouge or Ford River Rouge Complex, a Ford factory in Michigan, USA
In fictional characters:
Rouge (Power Stone), a character in Power Stone media
Rouge (Ranma½), a character in Ranma ½ media
Rouge the Bat, a character in Sonic the Hedgehog media
[edit]See also

Jeweller's rouge or iron(III) oxide
Khmer Rouge
Parti rouge
Rouging, a form of corrosion applicable to stainless steel
Rouge River (disambiguation)

Considering those and the context you used it, you must be referencing the breed of sheep. Yep, runnin' those rouge ag'in, they was!

Sorry, couldn't resist! I really am not trying to be mean, I know it was a typo, just put a very funny image in my head!

Fo sho. Seriously, do you think there's any profession that the media sucks at reporting about more than flying? Sure pretty much every network talks out of their ass, but whenever its about pilots or a plane crash the stuff they say is hilarious at best.

Any profession that you have any knowledge of it's about the same.

That's got to be one of the funniest. . .and most appropriate analogies I've heard in quite a long time.:rotfl:

So, according to the FO (who should most definitely NOT be speaking to the media!) they weren't sleeping and weren't involved in a heated discussion about company policies. What the hell is behind door #3? Perusing the pages of Penthouse/Hustler? Joining the Mile High Club? :dunno: :insane:

...figuring out their fantasy football lineups for the week?
...engrossed in a mean game of Yahtzee?
...hiding from the FAs in a cardboard box?

I got nothing. :dunno:
