FO = First Officer?

I wrote this before and got slammed for it, but I'm going to say it again because I believe communication is important.

Please do not use codes that are not industry standard! It's just too confusing to use archaic or secret codes. There is nothing wrong with spelling out Silver or Medallion or (horror of horrors) the concatenation of the two -- Silver Medallion.

For example, how much sense do the following make?

1) Flying AT is so much better than DL. They don't have that horrible MQM system.

2) Unlike DL, SW does not charge a change fee. Too bad SW doesn't fly to ATL.

3) We have a flight from CIN to DAL on Delta, and then from DAL to LUB on AE. For the connecting flight, what terminal does her and me go to?
