In the last 5 years Delta saw over 80 737-200's and 300's retired. All were replaced with RJ's. By Dec NWA will have seen over 100 DC-9's retired. All were replaced with RJ's. If you are a junior pilot this is the fight that matters. Talk to your reps. Tell them you want and need a coordinated effort to reclaim this flying!!!!!!
Fun,
I'm with you. Job protection and QOL issues are something that definately needs to be looked at next contract. Pay is nice but the bennies is what makes this job truly a pleasure. Nice post
