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.

Max ... I think you're 'putting the cart before the horse.' We agreed that the 757 would be NB pay in the last contract TA. The 767 is a "new animal" on the property and our CBA says it will be negotiated.

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.

That was not my point. I was responding to Baron's quip about the 72 replacement.

And I still disagree on the idea of monthly little excess bids. If it were that easy we would have had an excess bid in the fall with training starting in January to push some of the excess WB crews down to the 757. Instead the company has been buying up lines for 4 months now. I just don't see it happening. 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...

Looking ahead, once the 767 IS on property and the company gives the small excess bid theory a try (think 4A2B implementation/tough economic times), do you think there would be a scramble by all the senior guys to a 'protected' seat in something other than the 75/76?
