Price? Why would Boeing discount when that product makes them money. Maxes and 777X aren’t paying the bills. We could probably even get our hands on used A330CEOs dirt cheap.

I just don’t understand this rumor for a whole other fleet type. What’s the motive?

Those 787, might come with some scope relief clauses. I’ve been getting info that some backdoor negotiations it’s been done by our Chairman or someone he sent. It could be just rumors...

I just hope, whatever comes down the pipe, it goes to a vote.

If that's the case, I don't think Delta will be getting 787s. No way this group agrees to any scope relief.

Totally opposed to any LOA to change TOE’s.
1. Not safe.
2. Not necessary.
3. It will reduce manning while we have UNA pilots.
4. It will reduce green slips and assignments. They don’t want to properly staff categories after the great AE fiasco last year. Not our fault.
5. Of course they want us to fix their mistakes.

What am I forgetting?
