Shyguy- it was a few MILLION to change longevity dates. While that issue is still being pursued, and it was minimal in the overall contract cost, it's still millions. With XJ furloughs- many were -900 and -200 drivers at XJ. They were able to do a short course and be line qualified in under a month vs. 3+ for fresh meat. That is significant savings. Think of it all in a different viewpoint- if you help the entire profession, you inevitably help yourself.
