I’ve flown with Delta many, many times. Makes me wonder if I’ve ever had this pilot. Enjoy retirement! 👏🏻

Great salute for a pilot. I hope it was explained to the passengers. Good thing it was not foam like the Dutch accidentally sprayed on their first F-35 back in 2019.

Far, FAR cleaner than giving them a Duke's mayo bath- although there was no video of the pilots coming off the jet bridge :)

That captain must have know someone in the fire department. Normally, they don't do that for retirements these days!

Remember when Delta saved my military life returning to Ft. Jax in Columbia SC from a weekend pass. Thought flight ended at Richmond, but INVITED VISIT to cockpit in the 440, pilot told me "no it goes on to Columbia for overnight." Bot ongoing ticket from stewardess and all was O.K. Thank you again, Delta.

Delta is scheduled lose through retirement over 500 pilots in 2022.

That's hard to make up

Very true and they are slow coming into the industry as well.... Main Lines and Regionals hurting.

Congress needs to raise retirement age for pilots subject to physical evals. Maybe 67 or 68? Would help bridge the growing gap.

It would probably cause more harm than good. Most of the older senior pilots are on the widebody international stuff, ICAO has an age 65 limit.

The senior over age 65 pilots would have to be restricted to domestic flying only or displace other pilots out a more domestic fleet, narrow body and then still be placed on domestic flying only.

ICAO would have to raise the age to make it work. But it is just a temporary stopgap regardless, once they get to 67 same thing happens.
