It is a loss of buying power, duh! What it is, is nota LOA 46 loss and a LOA 51 loss off of hourly rates. DAL did more than kill buying power in CH11. PBS changes to vacation etc were also included. We took cuts prior to entering CH11. Different times, but AMR is talking positive percentages, no matter how pathetic they are. That will be important if they enter.
