        <![CDATA[ I&#39;m a Delta frequent flyer. Went from a fear of flying to 125,000 miles per year due to a job change. Still a bit nervous on the way to the airport but
once we take off and hit about 10,000 feet I&#39;m fine. Anyway I really like Delta, the cabins are always nice and clean, many flights have AVOD and or WiFi
front line service is excellent. Due to the merger with Delta next week I am scheduled to fly NWA to MSP and on to Chicago. Flights are on a NWA 757-300 and
then on a CR9. My concern... ]]>

			<description><![CDATA[ As an NWA pilot, I can assure you, that our airplanes are just as well maintained as everyone else.  The 757-300 you fly on, has greater than a 50% chance of
being painted in Delta colors.  The CR9 will be operated by Mesaba airlines, less than 3 years old, and will also be maintained just fine.  Most NWA planes did
not have the entertainment systems, or wifi, but all of the airplanes are being converted so you as a passenger will not know whether you are on an NWA flight
or DAL flight.

			<description><![CDATA[ I&#39;ve had similar experiences flying airlines other than American. The thought of being on an AA flight over the Atlantic is peaceful, serene, relaxing,
even fun. Getting on another airline I get a twinge of anxiety. It&#39;s very short lived, and goes away once we&#39;re rolling down the runway.

<br>
I think it&#39;s a familiarity thing. ]]></description>

then on a CR9. My concern is that by just looking at NWA planes they appear a bit weathered and not maintained as well as other airlines. My thoughts are that
this speaks to a culture of less attention to detail on the maintenance side than other airlines, whose planes appear to be in much better condition. I know
they are part of Delta now but the merger is far from complete. Should I be concerned about this? Do different airlines do a better job at maintenance than
others? Would the interior condition of a plane be... ]]></description>
