The backpay will only go back to DOS...I think one guy on the forum had posted some calculations that had gone back prior to that. For the 2007 hires, this isn't much money...it mainly affects the 1999-2001 hires.

I have no clue what the story is on the CAL guys form their furlough in 2001. Maybe someone could explain how they would factor in. I think it mainly had to do with vacation accrual and pass travel, but I'm probably wrong.
