Not saying it’s the right answer, but I honestly don’t see them throwing much of our negotiating capital at changing reserve rules. Most of the guys that have been around had much worse rules, and with our retirements and growth, very few people sit reserve unless they choose too. I’m not saying there’s not things they could change, but in the end the way negotiations work, there’s so many dollars to spend, I just don’t see much changing on the reserve front at all.a lot of guys don’t understand the union is working within a cost structure to a new contract, dollars spent in one area can’t be spent in another, so they try to maximize the benefits to the entire pilot group as best possible. That’s the reality of the situation, the other reality is if we want zero give on scope, this will take a while.
