Thread: Farewell Northwest

*Awwwww*



Yes, it will be sad to see the red tail go, and the more we hear, the more frightened many of us get. One of the merger videos that was suppose to reassure NW about the 'New Delta' came across with the impression that NW employees were 'scrappy mavericks' that needed to be trained to behave like 'real' airline employees...



We'll see.

I am real sad to see it happen. I have loved the red tails every since I was a young kid peering through the airport fence.

No offense to a great company--Delta, but I do not like this merger.

Farewell, Red Tails.

"The biggest airplane in Northwest Airlines' fleet--a Boeing 747-400--will be the first aircraft to be painted in the red-white-and-blue color scheme of Delta Air Lines, which acquired Northwest last week."

"Northwest's s entire fleet is set to be repainted in Delta's color scheme within two years."

Delta is matching planes to routes

Classy gesture

"All Delta employees from Northwest are receiving a piece of a rudder from a retired NWA aircraft as a commemorative item.
Technical Operations employees removed the tail from a Boeing 747-200 and manufactured mini Red Tail items from the aircraft skin.

"We wanted to recognize the dedicated service each employee has provided while honoring the rich history and pride the pre-merger NWA employees associate with the Red Tail", said Jim Davis, director-Employee Engagement, NWA.

Nicely done.

Of course they're already selling on eBay
