Why, on this planet, would DAL want you to fly a 767 for whatever you make, when in the future a pilot half your age will fly it for less than half of what you're making? It is the future of our business. Maybe farther away than we might think, but it is coming.
No offense taken, & none intended with this response. You haven't presented facts as I have. Your claim is that management wants to outsource all domestic flying. I presented facts to prove otherwise. Delta has yet to order a single additional 76 seat jet. Perhaps you should ask a Comair pilot just how much of a "joke" the contract is. What you're presenting, is your assumption and opinion.
