No scope language. Only mention about equipment pay differential is that if we acquire -400/600/800/900's and they can not be opperated interchangably with the -300/500/700's, then there will be a 5% pay differential. I do believe that it will be addressed in our next contract.
We could buy RJs tomorrow but then again, how would increasing our seat-mile cost fit our bussiness model?
