4000lbs stills equals another 20 seats even with the increase in pax weights, all management needs to do is find another language loophole in the scope and magically they stick those seats back in the 550, but “we don’t think the company would do that”-the MEC
oh then guess what? The jumpseat will again be useless.
The seats aren’t coming back in the 550. Don’t be silly. And if they did, 4000 lbs doesn’t even equate to the 70 seat definition in our contract. Lol. IOW, they can put the seats back in tomorrow, and fly them as a 70 seater at a much greater weight than +4000lbs. Silly argument. rtf contract.
50 seater…. 65,000lb
70 seater…..86,000lb
