There's an opportunity coming up to maybe slow down this trend of flying to the FAR max.

The FARs are changing and we are going to negotiate a Letter of Agreement to comply. Our work rules are going to undergo a major re-write.

We need to tell DALPA that we are "productive" enough. We're not bankrupt anymore. The pendelum should start to swing back a little more toward quality of life and quicker captain upgrades and less toward maximum flight time pick-ups and unlimited line values.
