Is there a fundamental long term problem here that "scope" can't solve?

Yes- Delta management would like to at least enjoy the ability to outsource ALL off our jobs.

Scope is our legal right to Delta flying. It is always an issue because it is the foundation of our bargaining leverage. Scope is the first section of our contract because without scope, none of the rest of the contract can be enforced.
