Denny, Keep in mind that jobs given up to work rules tend to be permanent. Jobs gained via a early retirement are temporary. If 300 pilots retire early and on average they would have retired in the next 12 months anyway you gain is over a very small time frame. The 300 jobs lost to work rules stay gone. The ER program is not a offset to work rule changes.
