17% raise to cave on scope? Whoever you heard that from must have been smoking something good. I think you would have to be in the neighborhood of 117% raises before Delta pilots would consider caving again. The Delta pilots are not stupid. They all are very aware of how scope has slowed all of their careers.
Not going to happen in 2012.
