That statement is a 15 yard scope penalty.
We own ALL of the flying done on behalf of Delta Air Lines. The subcontractors operate only because they are permitted to do so under the terms of our PWA.
As I've said before, the analysis has been done. You can probably do some of your own just based on labor costs from Form 41 data. As to the ASA's get our pseudo-lawyer CheckEssential to go back to the bankruptcy era and search if any of the bankrupt carriers ASA's were ever made public. I don't know, but doubt they were as that is highly sensitive competitive data. Most of that was redacted from the bankruptcy record at least in Delta's case. In other words, unless you get a job with ALPA E&FA, you're probably not going to see them...
I did that search years ago. You are correct. None of that information about the ASAs was made public in the bankruptcy transcripts. One of the post-bankruptcy 10k forms had the expiration dates but no financial data. Bucking Bar knows this little secret though ----> a whole lot of embarrassing data and other information about Delta's arrangements with the DCI carriers came out in the Mesa lawsuit testimony. Delta manages the DCI situation ""poorly". (to put it very charitably)
