Huh, scuse me!? The Delta pilots of that period read the 1113 documents, our amended contract, and our W-2's, and we knew there were billions there, since we were giving them those billions. There wasn't any question in anyone's mind that the company would be VERY profitable. The problem many of us had is that we didn't know how soon, and how much we would get back. The guys that engineered/negotiated the PS have a claim to the credit, they own it. We gave them hell over it, in fact.
Were you here when the PS was negotiated by them, and funded by me and a few thousand guys I know?
