That's a new one - Peeing My Pants Laughing!

Delta flies birds? "American 345 hold position, caution - there's a Delta Seagull on the taxiway!"

Classic line from a tacky old TV show. The kids wanted to go to Disney but the airport was fogged in.

"Planes can't fly in fog? I hate fog! Birds can fly in fog. We should have taken a bird!"

I don't think DL flies any Airbus models - at least, not yet. Last I checked, they flew:


B722 (may all be retired now)
B732
B735
B738
B752
B764
B772
MD88 (All of them!)
MD90 (All of them too!)
L1011 (Great aircraft - now retired)
MD11

He is right though, Delta, like Continental, flies an all-Boeing/MD fleet (not including their regional partners of course).

No, I just know my sh-t!

Partially from my KMHT experience - when you service 9 airlines, you learn stuff (US Airways, Continental, ExpressJet (CO Express),
United, American Eagle, Delta, Comair, Northwest, Southwest).

After transferring to KBOS, handling US Airways exclusively, I WAS the equipment authority on the staff. I was the only one who could
tell the pax what they were flying on, how big it was, how many seats, what livery, etc. Not that anyone ever asked but, I would have been
able to tell them!

Okay, nerd alert acknowledged.

Well Done.
Your note-pad, flask and anorak with the drawstring is on its way to you.


It could be worse - in the Ultimate Traffic forum people notice things like the early morning British Airways plane from Heathrow -
Amsterdam should have winglets made by the 1248 Carbide Company from Washington - The ones shown are the 1247 variety and are
2/5 inch longer.

[Airliner]

Okay, THAT is insane! I gladly relinquish the torch!

I always thought that was funny - how the comparisons between AI traffic packages stressed that some have very accurate patterns while
others have more airlines or something. Okay, like someone is really going to park at an airport, face the runway with a watch a note the
departures! Well, I guess they do!

I would highly suggest folks like that have a door and a couple windows installed IMMEDIATELY!

PS and BTW, DAL got rid of all the 3 holers awhile ago.
