It's a pity you see scope through such a narrow straw. This is a significant improvement in scope for the Delta pilots. Fewer 76 seat jets, fewer 70-seaters (can't be honest if you aren't counting jumbo turboprops), fewer 50 seaters, more mainline block hours within the Delta brand, improved code share language, improved joint venture protections, improved furlough protection. Plus more pay, improved reserve guarantee, significantly improved sick leave and LTD. No surprise it passed.
