There seems to have been almost nothing in the press here over the last few days. We had such terrible weather near here yesterday reported by the local channels that the NBC & CBS 'Evening News' were cancelled or pre-empted.

May 1st was the date of the new contract implementation. Although things seemed the same at first, my first trip of the month was quite an adjustment to the new status quo.
For my personal archives, I made an audio recording of me meeting with AA management for a briefing on revised operations for pilots at AA.

I.O.--I heard the NW management has their knives out after your contract. Hope you all told them to pound sand!;)
Maybe Carty will be a good example for execs taking bonuses while furloughing employees.TC
