I just don't think it's negotiable for any of us after the concessions we gave when the BK gun was pointed at our heads.

I believe the group is all about recovering what was lost....plus. The company must love that any of us are even discussing the possibility of scope concession or the fear of it.

Here is a prediction. There will be no real battle over relaxing scope in this contract. It wont even become a major issue. The fight will be to try and regain the EMB170/175 flying. If the EFA team can produce the numbers to show we can fly that flying at a reasonable cost compared to DCI it should be a all out war on our part.
