All I know is that the 2006 Had NB rates, WB rates and a new A-380 Rate.
We didn't have any A380's but had them on Firm Order (a limp term)
We didn't have any 737's or 757's on order but the language was cleverly hidden as NB's in the last sentence of Section 26K.

If he even tries to say it was unforeseen, Raise the BS flag. Carriers have been using the 757/767 common type for a long time.

The company isn't some mysterious evil empire out to crush the pilot group, regardless of what some may think.
There would be no additional training required moving guys back and forth every 6 months seeing they would already be flying the 75 and 76.
Just a thought...
