Lots of talk about the Scope from this group, that's good. As of the last 44 meeting, mainline was down 50 airframes from the time of the merger. DCI is still at 255 70 seat RJ's. Thus, as a percentage the 70 seat segment has grown. I think that's probably the intent of the language, to put a cap on the percentage that DCI can grow, but who knows at this point.

Scope is very near and dear to me, but I'm surprised how many wanted to see re-capture of the 70-76 seat segment. I'm all for getting that flying back. But expect minimal contract improvements if that happens. I would take that flying back for no raise at all, most will not however. I'd be shocked if we ever get the 70 seat flying back to mainline. Just my .02
