Because the current language (that the company violated without shame for 4+ years and counting with no intent to ever honor) is language about our "half" which is pathetically defined as 48.5%. They are still under that, so it seems they would need to do the 53% you mentioned to eventually re-comply with a perpetually lower baseline. The block hours we fly becuse of the EASK's is higher than their's, so it seems like you are talking EASK's instead of BH's.
The existing contract uses EASKs. The new one drops that and uses aircraft block hours.
For purposes of debate they converted EASKs and used the new metric.
The numbers I posted are aircraft block hours.
