Mad,
Things were really bad earlier this year, but they are getting better. There is at least some movement and if you don't like the schedule or airplane you are flying, you can bid a different aircraft. New hires are probably going to be slated to go to the 320 and the relaxing of the "mandatory no open time" seems to be helping with the schedules. To sum it up, I think our contract is better than United but the pay is worse. So, I don't think NWA should be lower than dead last on your list. I might remind some people that that is exactly where UPS, CAL, Fed Ex, and even Southwest used to be. Now look at them. Maybe if we quit complaining and do something we can move up as well.....
