And yet the DALPA contract comparison didn't include pilot block hour costs. There's a reason for that. It's because unions have no control over how management runs the airline. An example is Delta operating many aircraft types while Southwest only operates one. In that comparison, the exact same contractual provision would produce a different cost per block hour because of a management decision.

I don't know why you work so hard to run from the DALPA contract comparison and add other meaningless items attempting to prove whatever case you're trying to prove. The DALPA contract comparison is all we have. It shows Delta pilots don't lead the industry in one single section. Not one.
