Since bankruptcy, there have been a series of agreements, primarily in regards to the Joint Venture that have strengthened our scope. We now have the tightest Joint Venture protections in the industry. If there is a "history" of selling scope concessions, you should at least be able to name one.
The bankruptcy and the merger both came with relaxation of scope restrictions.
The latest outrage was the scope "settlement" that he didn't even bother to tell the pilots about before he signed it. (allowing still more 76 seat aircraft)
That was sold based on Moak's telling us we should fear that the contract might be interpreted wrong by an arbitrator. So we better not fight the grievance all the way. Too dangerous.
I don't have the contracts and LOAs in front of me right now but the number of permitted large RJs has risen steadily under Moak and that needs to stop.
