Pilots aren't stupid. Give them 60 days, with language, and they'll figure it out.
Block hours have an advantage when times are bad. EASK's work better on the upside. Each voting pilot can make up their own mind whether they're OK with removing 2 767's (6 pilots) for 1 A380 (usually 2 pilots) when the Atlantic is soft.
And the Atlantic is soft.
Are you trying to say that there is language in the JV that compels DAL to reduce flying when one of the JV partners does?
When you say "usually 2 pilots" for the A380, where is that coming from and exactly what percentage of A380 JV partner routes are 2 pilot crews?
