"As of December 31, 2008, we (Delta Air Lines, Inc.) had a total of 84,306 full-time equivalent employees. Approximately 42% of these employees were represented by unions, including the following domestic employee groups.
Delta Pilots (including pre-merger NWA pilots) 11,040
Delta Flight Superintendants (Dispatchers) 180
NWA Dispatchers 150
NWA Fleet Service, Passenger Service, Office/Clerical 11,030
NWA Simulator Technicians 40
NWA Stock Clerks 270
NWA Flight Attendants 6,290
NWA Mechanics and Related Employees 900
NWA Plant Protection Employees 10
NWA Tech Operations Trainers, Planners, Analysts 170
NWA Meteorologists 20
Comair Pilots 1,190
Comair Maintenance Employees 500
Comair Flight Attendants 790
Compass Pilots 320
Mesaba Pilots 1,090
Mesaba Flight Attendants 650
Mesaba Mechanics and Related Employees 310
Mesaba Dispatchers 25 "
So is Delta falsifying SEC reports by saying Comair Pilots are employees when in fact they are not?
