Well in totality of cost you are wrong.
As to my plugins, I told you all the 78 deal WILL NOT happen without MRO on the GEnX motors. Hmmm, look what we got.

but since you don’t even know within a hundred bucks an hour what a narrowbody captain makes, maybe your fermi estimate wouldn’t be worth much, either.

still no data or even reasoned analysis. for a person so proud of knowing what a fermi estimate is, you don’t seem willing to even try to present anything worth listening to beyond “bow before my supposed connections.”

Relax.
And again, you're wrong. This little charade has cost the company, in the months they've engaged in the practice, well over 100m. You can bank on it.
This is great leverage for us going into section 6 too.

$100 million a month is nigh impossible, unless you're including the double pay for who actually flew it as well, which isn't right.
I'll even assume $400/hr average pay rate, which is way higher than it actually is, and it still doesn't work.
100M / 400 = 250,000 hours paid out.
250,000 / 5.75 (I'm assuming a little higher than minimum day here) = 43,000+ DAYS paid out as 23M7 IN ONE MONTH. I do not believe that there are that many 23M7 payouts going out, no way. That's over 14,000 three day trips.
Most of those 23M7 trips are going out as double pay whether they use 23M7 or not. You can't count the double pay in the math of what 23M7 is costing the company, only the single pay to the harmed pilot.

the original FB post some have mentioned here is that m7 cost the company over 200m in December alone. I would definitely be hesitant to believe that without proof.
and if those numbers are accurate I hope ALPA can capitalize on it and get us a great contract quickly.

I think anyone would have been able to safely say this. The rumor has been for years post covid that we did not order more AB WBs because RR would not give us the MRO rights we wanted. It’s a very well known fact we are very stubborn about the right to work on our engines. My guess is if AB/RR had been willing to wheel and deal on MRO issues 12-36 months ago we would not have a 787 order right now.
