Ok Carl, humor me a bit after all I am a bit slow. You call me names all the time so I know you understand that.
Wages and salaries are up. Retirement expenses are up even more with the 1% increase and funding needs for the NWA plan. Productivity is about the same as verified by block hours per pilot and total system hours verses pilots hired.
So where is this almost half a billion dollars per year they are saving with contract 2012? What is it and where can I find it in the reports?
