acl65pilot: what's the skinny on the AE. Is it going to be mostly 777 stuff in ATL?
And thus we now have the initial positions of DALPA and NALPA. DALPA's proposed list disadvantages every NWA pilot by 1 to 6% of their prior relative seniority. DOH will show you losing 7%. It is clear that both sides are starting at the extremes.

Looks like negotiations 101 so far.
