Without specific examples such as the one you made in the LOA, it's fuzzy math. If they mean it one way, they should feel comfortable putting a clear example in the LOA. Especially since nothing remotely like this exists right now...

As to the loss of future WB seats when all the 767 reserves (except 2 required by the CBA) are manned by NB pilots, I'm still waiting for someone to demonstrate the error in this argument. I'm really surprised (disappointed, shocked, etc) that, in spite of this FACT, people out there are still considering voting for this. The only people who should be for this are senior WB guys interested in hoisting the ladder up after themselves.

I can't say if they won't man all the reserves with NB pilots but to do so would require them to fly a lot of 75's around at WB rates!
