ALPA put subject to block hour limitations in parenthesis. United is maxed out on its block limitations. I think they only have 120 70 seaters right now and cannot get any more without scope relief. They allow 0 76 seaters. We are going to allow 223 76 seaters and 102 70 seaters. How can this be sold as a win by ALPA on the scope front? I personally do not understand how anyone could vote for this. We will have the worst scope in the industry.
