There were ghosts and they put them in the grid containment system...just because you disagree, it doesn't make him wrong. Many shoves and zules will be roasted in the depths of the slore that day I can tell you. |

S2's are by the calendar day not per flight, so you should be okay. Now I see that Denny beat me to it. As if it matters, I concur with Denny.
I remember reading on L&G last year a series of messages about non-reving and the dreaded HKs that show up the day of flight to ruin your chances of getting on your flight. I am a retired Delta agent and it has been about 15 years since I last worked as a gate agent. Gate agents today have some really good IT tools to work the flight with but when I did last work a flight we had on average 2 adjacent rows of seats that were blocked and could only be assigned at the gate. This was done to solve seating problems like families traveling with small children. As a result of the blocked seats, a confirmed passenger could check in at the ticket counter and there would be no available seat to assign. In earlier days they were just told to check with the gate agent for a seat and this added more to the workload of the gate agent. Then IT came up with the standby code of HK. It stood for (H)olds (K)onfirmed and it allowed the gate agent to assign them seats as easily as they could clear a non-rev. HKs are confirmed passengers without a seat assignment. They are included in the count when you look at an availability display on DeltaNet. They are -not- mystery passengers that show up as extra folks just to mess up your non-rev experience. I know that all messages these days in L&G must mention the TA, so there ya go... :p Witzend |

Agreed, I am still on the fence because of the pay and retirement. 5 10 5 and 5 would have worked for me, with a little more to the DC plan. Why we had to give up a third of the profit sharing is beyond me.
Who put out the 2-2.5 billion number on re-engining the RJ's? It seems high to me at 10-12.5 million per airframe.

Approx how much will the mx on the 5o seaters cost? I've heard anywhere from $200 million, to $2.5 billion. I tend to believe the closer to $2.5 billion. Thx Mixed numbers from 1-2.5b. 2b was initial number given MEC. Not important. Critical number is how much company will save with parking rjs. This is a one time cost and we should get a "finders fee". At nieces graduation in Oregon. Back in Dtw tomorrow. Call if you wish |
The CRJ-200s have -3B1 engines. Looks like from the data below a 3B1 has a $116/hour cost and overhauls at 25,000 hours. Basically $2.9M per engine. If this is right, $116 x 25,000 x 2 x 319 airplanes is $1.850 B.
The thing is not all 315 or so airplanes are due up on these inspections. On an average amount of flying of around, using Alfa's provided number, 2,700 hours the engines would hit their overhaul at around 9 years. So how many airplanes are in a time period for a swap? Let me count all those 7-10 years old and I come up with 150. Do the same math and its $870M or $0.870B, but that's just for the engines. I don't know if I add thrust reversers because that brings it up to just shy of $1B. And then there is the C checks, if I am supposed to add then $1.2B is the total number. If it's 250 airplanes, well then there is the $2.2B. All a guess working off this below, Alfa's numbers and airfleets: http://www.team.aero/files/aviation_..._guide_crj.pdf EFH is engine flight hours and EFC is engine flight cycles fwiw. -3B1 “In the case of the -3B1 we follow the practice of removing the HPT off-wing at Delta TechOps,” continues Stricklin. “We first do a mid-life HPT removal at the first shop visit after 10,000-12,000EFC on-wing. We do minor work with the first stage HPT nozzles and combustor liners at this stage, as well as some minor stuff on the HPC. “The engine can then remain on-wing to a total time of 18,000EFC when the LLP life is expired in the HPT,” continues Stricklin. “The HPT and combustor have a full workscope to this stage, with HPT LLPs replaced. Little work is done on the fan and HPC, and the LPT needs no work at all until its LLP limit of 25,000EFC, when a third removal and shop visit are carried out and all modules are overhauled and have their LLPs replaced. Iberia follows a pattern of two removals and shop visits for the -3B1. “Mid-life maintenance can be done on the HPT module at some point during the life limit of the LLP with the shortest life. This is 17,000-18,000EFC in the case of most engines,” continues Pablo. A workscope on the HPT will use about 300MH in labour, about $460,000 in parts, $50,000 for sub-contract repairs, and $20,000 for the HPT removal and replacement. This would have a total cost of $550,000. The LLPs replaced at this stage would be the four HPT parts with lives of 18,000EFC, which have a list price of about $156,000. The second removal interval depends on the remaining lives of LLPs in the replacement HPT, and the shortest life in the HPC. This is the blisk, which has a life of 22,200EFC for most currently operating engines. In 2008 a new post-SB 72-240 blisk part number was introduced to improve its life to 25,000EFC. A full overhaul of these modules was carried out at a total time of 22,000EFC or 25,000EFC. Usually, most LLPs in the fan, HPC and LPT would be replaced in the modules that have a full disassembly performed on them.” The second shop visit would be an overhaul, and have a similar cost to the -3A1 as described. The remaining LLPs in the engine would be replaced at this stage, and have a list price of $990,000. The cost of the two shop visits would be amortised over 22,200EFC or 25,000EFC, depending on the HPC blisk part number fitted in the engine. The combined reserve would be $62-70 per EFC, depending on interval. Corresponding LLP reserves would be $49-54 per EFC. The total reserves for the -3B1 would therefore be $111-134 per EFC. This is equal to $96-116 per EFH |
