Humm, that would be great for that 2001 hire at World who is now a DC-10 Captain.
I think you miss that "other" component of the slotted ratio system. That's job value. I don't care if your airplane is the biggest one in the system if it pays like poop, especially if you're going to use the argument that it can poop bigger than a smaller but equivalently paying aircraft. The slotted ratio system takes into account the value of what you bring to the table.

Oh, and remember, that's exactly how DAL did Pan Am and WAL, so there's a history. (Here's where you shout "it's not the same...)

Size matters, especially in compensation! Just ask your spouse!
