Not that it would do any good, but I already wrote both my senators and congressmen about the remarks of the grant money being a general cash infusion, etc. I’d suspect if Sen. John Kennedy heard those remarks today, he’d had gone off on a real hilarious tirade.

Some of your posts can be hard to decipher.
Not everyone reads the way you think. It's your prerogative to write that way. But sure, me trying to understand what on earth you were writing is apparently insulting. Have a nice day too:rolleyes: |

Good video for tactical issues but terrible for strategic. I came away with the impression they were still fumbling through the crisis and were hopeful to stumble on the right solution. The contrast is they want us to shut down the APU and single engine taxi to save money. |

Almost hard to be ****ed at the company when we (the MEC) agreed to the language.
Nope...pretty easy still. At the time the LOA was signed, no one knew what things would look like on 1 April, let alone May or June. If anything, maybe they allowed for the possibility that cases would level off and demand wouldn’t drop like it did. I don’t blame the MEC. It wasn’t their call to say “yes, we are going to offer the SIL” only to change their mind the night before. |

The contrast is they want us to shut down the APU and single engine taxi to save money. Great point. I think SILs would save 45M-50M/quarter. That’s a lot of money, and the beauty of SILs is that they do not require future recompense. Free-ing a pilot of work obligation IS the payoff. It’s cashing in on the inadvertent surplus. |
