How'd you guys do holding the line on WB scope in TA16? I know you think it's just 48.5 to 46.5 and may not be a problem at all (i read your DL forum post and have lots of DL friends), but if the company didn't want it and didn't see upside to it (for them, not you), they wouldn't have stuck it in there. At least there won't be more jumbo RJs flying for DCI. That's a plus. Thanks (honestly) for raising the bar for the rest of us with pay. I just wish scope, touted by you as the most important part of any pilot contract, wasn't sold...not even one Atlantic crossing a day.
