And that's 3 more DAL folks than I thought would ever consider it. Must've had one foot out the door already...

For those of us on the bottom, this just means more wiggle room in preventing the unwanted Fs.

Yep, we will see if the hold true to the decisions made a week ago. I know your NYC CP has still been using the F word even though the ones in ATL have not.

Like I said in my previous post it is under a NDA and you cannot talk about it either.

( I know that some one has called a Realtor for their gate space in LGA. We are in the market)

You might see some of my predictions come true!

Yep, best guess it 40-50 off the 767 domestic. There was to be staffing for two new 777's. Add to that they MAY start staffing for the new jets that have not been officially announced.
All of these numbers are on a sliding scale as it relates to PIRPS. If we get more the less people get to go through a retraining.

Also, I think that LLC and UAUA may be very close to CH 11. Maybe even CH 7.
I think we have seen the true round of mergers starting. DAL was just a head of everyone by a year or so. It is going to get ugly and it will make all of us even happier that we are here, and not there.

If you take a look at the 7ER bid sheet, it seems that a lot of 767 domestic flying has already moved to it. I am thinking that it is possible to be on the 7ER and still fly domestic, if that were my preference. I am just wondering what "theater currency" will involve. Any ideas?
