So if this is what we get when times are good I shutter to think what happens during tougher times. What are we gonna do.....outsource the 737's and 757's next because the 76-100 seater's can no longer make money? Oh wait.... Not enough will be outsourced to effect the "ratio". So it's all good.
If what I'm reading is true we need MUCH smarter negotiators at the table. If they can't see where this is headed they need to be removed.
I doubt it's a matter of how smart they are. My guess it's a more a matter of what their motivations are. Why would DALPA negotiators cave on scope?
