Jack, I'm not ok with further outsourcing. I don't think this TA does that. First off, 88 717's is a lot more than a handful. Our domestic flying will increase from 52% to over 60% while rj flying decreases from 48% to under 40%. I don't see how that's outsourcing. One thing that will never happen under this TA is what happened to me and hundreds of other pilots that got furloughed in 2001-2002. We were all losing our jobs while the regionals were hiring like crazy. That cannot happen under this TA. The 717's will generate growth at Delta. I am for that. Don't you think Delta will grow in the next 10-15 years? Guess what, as we get larger and add more airplanes and flights the DCI carriers will still be flying 450 airframes.
