What is the quid we could secure if the company were to desire a change that allowed SKYW to fly it elsewhere (AMR/LCC/UCAL)?
More money?
Reducing the DCI limit by a number of airframes again?
Upping the MBH ratios?
Improving vac/trng credit again?
Moving res max to ALV 7.5?
ADG to 5:00?
We still have a list of wants, you never know when you can make some gains.
Lots of options out there where we can gain without really losing anything.
Merely holding the line and forcing the elimination of SKYW wouldn't reduce the RJ flying, DAL would merely ensure the flying was placed at another(undercutting) DCI.
Shiz, succinctly it's moving a scope limit when it effects the operation. Moreover they made this official after knowing ournpwa limits. Sunds like the bombardier order in 2000-2001 that they "knew" was beyond our scope. Guess what? The scope changed right before the deliveries arrived.
We as a group need to decide if trading scope for other PWA gains is the best method of doing business? If so, carry on.
