We might be getting somewhere. Read again what our friend sailingfun just wrote. In one sentence he says Mike Campbell never said it. In the very next sentence he claims Campbell said that "fleet changes combined with profit sharing and productivity changes would
cover the cost." Some might think that "cover the cost" and "cost neutral" are the same thing. Richard and Ed sure think so as they actually used the term "cost neutral."

That might be your
opinion, but Campbell
didn't say that.

I have no doubt that the company and our union accepted the final decisions on costing. Sure would be nice to see those documents.

I've already explained that to you in a previous post to which you have refused to respond. You purposely misstate as pilot
costs, the row that states pilot
wages/salary. There is no doubt that pilot
wages/salary has gone up since C2012. No question. What we don't know is whether all those gains were totally offset by costed concessions in other areas.
