But lets be clear, it shouldn't have happened.
As a junior fNWA guy I agree that it shouldn't have happened. This however is not such a huge "c scale" or whatever you want to call it that I'm getting twisted up about it. I take great solace in the fact that we all had to bend a little bit to avoid a USAir style debacle. It's been explained to me (to my satisfaction) that the whole DC targeting/contribution/sunsetting process we have in place was put in place to gradually bring everyone up to parity. I'm fine with this in the interest of harmony, which I think we can all agree, is worth more than a few % for 3 years.
FTB,
It will be fixed by 2012, because in 2012 we will all be on the same DC contribution scale. The 180 fNWA guys will effectively "catch up" in that year to everyone else (including newhires) with a 3% bump as PG pointed out.
No disrespect meant towards TOGA LK, as I have a few pet issues that I would like addressed, but to me this isn't a battle worth fighting. I'm looking more big picture for 2012 to get a big bump in all contract sections for ALL DELTA PILOTS.
