Weren't quite a few on here stating that the new TA wouldn't generate new jobs. This latest SEC filing states that the new PWA was critical to accomplishing the refleeting that's creating a net plus of 66 aircraft for the mainline. Others were on here lambasting a T&G that stated that we would increase staffing by about 1000 with this PWA.
Glad to see the growth. Appreciate the hard work so many of our fellow pilots put in knocking down the misinformation campaign during the TA ratification.

The concern was not that would be no growth, it was that it was not guaranteed with the addition of 70 more 76 seat jets and the ratio. Ala, not all 717's were guaranteed to be growth jets.
*Also, what airline(s) has about 66 jets that could get our fleet total up very quickly? Not hinting, just pointing out that there are many ways to arrive at 796.
It was an interesting filing I looked at after it was mentioned at the LEC 44 Meeting yesterday by the Strategic Planning Chairman.
