Misc - HL 235 (5)

Look for the OLDEST “LIVING” PILOT list that is produced by David Roberts to be published and available (behind a login) shortly.  I need to work on things before releasing it to our private group.

But they can't pay the pilots earned retirement--
 
   I did not realize that Delta was involved with all these operations and businesses..

	Delta Air Lines - More Than Just An Airline Delta stands out from its US competitors in that it is more like an aviation holding company.

Subject: Seniority Lists request

Hello all,

If anyone has an extra Delta seniority list printed between 1957 and 1967 would you please send it to me by mail, or scan it and email it to me as an attachment.  I'm missing those lists in my files and would like to have them for historical purposes.

If you want your copy or copies returned, please let me know that or I'll assume you don't need them back.

Thank you in advance.
Dave

Thanks again for the PCN posts Mark.

I wonder if you would publish the list of pilots/sons/daughters I compiled from Zimmerly/Empire/WCA...

This may encourage NC/RC/NW/DL to do the same.

Just a request.

 Thanks, Captain Ray Dahl, (Ret, B744DTW)

Editor: Yes, this list offered by Ray is encouraging and shows a lot of movement in our industry.  There will certainly be more.  While in training in ATL in JUN (at the same training hotel that DAL uses for new hires) I was able to learn a thing or two.  The JUN class had 48 in it with only 3 pure military.  Telling.  The JUL class is scheduled for 65.  SWA had a JUN class that they did not fill. Times are a changing.  P.S. Things are pretty sweet now at the old property for new hires.  The rooms are suites, with breakfast, supper and beer all provided by the big D.  Not too shabby.
