15 Months Ago, a
Delta Pilot Left This Note In the Cockpit For the Next Crew. It’s a Reminder of
How Far We’ve Come
Jason Aten - 15h

The world may really be getting back to "normal."
March 2020 will one of those points in time that separates our lives into before and after. If,
for no other reason, because very little that we remember about life before
March 2020 is the same as it is now.
In many ways, it's like September 11, 2001, for those who are
old enough to remember. Of course, the difference is that the world changed for literally everyone last
March as the Covid-19 pandemic spread across the globe and governments told
their citizens to stay home.
In a blog post, Delta Air Lines shared a note written by a pilot
in what we might now think of as the before time. It's an almost eerie reminder
of how little we knew then about how much and how quickly the world was about
to change. It's also an important lesson about being optimistic about the
future. We'll get to that part in a minute.
The pilots had just arrived at Victorville Airport, also known
as Southern California Logistics Airport. The name isn't important. What
matters is that it's in the California desert, which is where you take planes
you aren't planning to use for a while.

That reality had started to set in for the pilot who wrote the
note.
Hey Pilots,
It's March 23rd and we just arrived from MSP. Very chilling to
see so much of our fleet here in the desert.
If you
are here to pick it up then the light must be at the end of the tunnel. Amazing
how fast it changed. Have a safe flight bringing it out of storage.
At the time, everyone thought it would only be a few weeks. That
turned into a few more weeks, and then months. Now, 15 months later, pilots
returned to Victorville to pick up the Airbus 321 that had been parked for 435
days. What a surreal feeling that must have been. What a surprise to find that
note.

About time. I don't guess they would listen
to we retired pilots. It seems that the Delta family is gone.

Hi Mark,
Thought you
might know what to do with this news report, as DAL is requiring all new
employees to get the jab and probably pressuring current employees (pilots) to
get the vaccine also. THIS IS HUGE!…..

British Airways pilots have DIED of the COVID vaccine in the past 7-days, and
BA are now in crisis talks with the UK Government about whether or not their
vaccinated pilots should be allowed to fly.
This
presents a big problem because around 85% of all British Airways pilots have
already been vaccinated.
Enjoy your
email PCN newsletters to retired pilots and survivors.
Thanks so
much,
