You guys need to realize that you fly for crap and have to fly a lot. You feel that you are understaffed when you fly 95 hours, not 75. And who doesn't want it to change? Delta doesn't care.
Mgmt is saying that they would rather do all our flying out of SLC because it is cheaper for them and it would be better for the crews. I believe that because it is obviously in their best interest to keep flying where they already have all the infrastructure. Most people here seem to want to fly 85ish hours per month. You need to state who you work for before you say we fly for crap. Among the current DCI crop it looks to me like we are much closer to the top than the bottom. I would be happy to be wrong on that because we are going into pay negotiation but from what I can see we are higher than most on the 50 CA about average on the 7/9 CA but way higher than most on the FO scale. I'm not saying I don't want to make more but if you want to call us out then state who you work for and lets compare.
