Our new scope will force Delta to get more mainline airframes, but not park the 70 seaters in order to add more 76 seaters. It seems the current scope is better than the new scope. There is no way to spin this. OUR TA'S REGIONAL JET SCOPE IS NOT AN IMPROVEMENT!!!!!!!!! This cannot be said enough. We are allowing more mainline competitive jets to be outsourced in return for parking money losing outsourced jets. I am one vote. This issue has been beaten to death. It is the sole reason we have an early TA. I am one that believes if we send it back, we will probably get a TA with more money, but it will still be unacceptable to me on the scope front. I am prepared to go through a traditional years long section 6 negotiations to protect and improve our current scope. I understand that I am probably in the minority. I will accept the TA if it passes and move on.
