Hell Yeah THAT! Those are some extremely clear pics! The a/c looks like it was just factory delivered! Its so clean!

Can you smell the new airplane? Looks pretty clean!

I guess if you really are a professional, and you have respect for your tools, then you would always have a nice work environment. Not like that sharpie messaging that those Delta pilots do:insane:

Delta owns Compass?

 

[-=Deniz=-]

It's Delta's old Northwest Compass. It's wholly owned by Northwest, which is now owned by delta.

So what would you do to fly one of those airplanes guys?

Takes a bit to get used to it, but after a while (and a lot of paint) it starts to somewhat make sense.

Some interesting development there.

Looks highly similar to the -145, but it seems to have evolved quite a bit.

I note that the powerplant START/STOP selectors are now on the center console instead of the overhead. Makes sense, for the most part.

Granted, I believe the center console is much larger on the -175.

Nice.

Probably spend $100k on training at a pilot mill that will guarantee you a job at a regional so you won't have to instruct (icky!), then take a $18,000 a year job so you can be a cool airline pilot and have stripes and a hat. But they will be flying an awesome shiny jet, and that's all that counts!!!!

I'll do you one better - probably spend $100k on training, then offer to pay the company to let me fly it!

I think you gotta go through mainline now to fly them

Not.

Unless you mean the "flowback" when (if) Delta furloughs. . .but for some reason I don't think that's what you're talking about.

anything...I mean...anything, I'd even go on a date with max

I'd give 'em half of my Klondike® Bar. :laff:





I hope someone gets the reference.

 

[mshunter]

Well, no offense to any of you that strive to be an airline pilot, but I don't think I'd do it even if I was offered a good wage. I mean, sure it's a nice jet and all, but I want to fly, not watch systems.

That's what I mean. There is nowhere to go but down, but I don't know if that'll even (be allowed) happen
