I don;t think we should allow any more at DCI.. but I wouldn't spend a nickle to get 'em on the property here.

That's some fuzzy thinking and quit inaccurate information.

The payrates aren't worth it to the mainline pilots. Really..... Did you know that at the end of this TA your 76 "RIGHT" seat pay is very similar to what the md88/90 and dc9 paid just a couple years ago? That is definitely some selfish or ignorant thinking tsquare. I'm curious, did you feel the same way a couple years ago when the last contract was signed?
