He called that amount of money "chump change." You then extrapolate to "all about me."

How about we look at the collective number. In 2015 Delta pilot pay will be $420 million more than it is this year using the same pay hour formula.

It will take UAL/CAL over $700 million per year and 400 additional pilot hires to come up to that contract.

Chump change...all about me....really. Really?
Clamp is right...it IS chump change. It's even worse when you add in another massive scope concession with protections written in unenforceable language.

It's not chump change only if you accept the premise that bankruptcy reset our contract forever, C2K is dead, and all increases will be based from the bankruptcy reset. Since I know this is what you and DALPA believe, this is the disconnect in expectations.
