Airline Pilot Central Forums - Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?

And before all the reserve guys spend all their money, by this time next year your 84 + hours each month of flying the crap trips should give you some more to put in your bank account. Oh yeah, don't forget you will be stuck there a couple more years because of the EFFICIENCIES we traded on. Manning formula tightened up and don't need nearly as many line holders flying their 84 plus lines.

2015 or now we can discuss DPA a little more seriously

It is increasingly clear that you do not understand the structure of the new reserve system. Please stop with the fear grenades.

Btw, DPA was dead to begin with.

My reserve line just went from 70 hours at $188.96 to 80 hours at $196.52. A $2,494.40 difference. Not a bad start.

I walked onto an airbus earlier and the window was partially delaminated. They ship changed to a maddog because they knew those hosses would get the job done. Maddog don't give a....

So here I sit until 8ish tonight! I'll go and sit at the ALPA desk since no one is there. :)

And the max allowed jumbo RJs under this TA jumps from 255 to 325 and we no longer have to grow to 767+ airframes before 76 seaters are added.

sorry, not jumping for joy over a pay raise.

Don't have to add 88 mainline aircraft for the added 76's?

Could have sworn I read that somewhere..:rolleyes:

Doesn't say anything about parking other mainline aircraft as those 88 come on board. Would have been nice if someone had thought to put that in the TA, wouldn't it?

Enjoy the "ret". You typed it wrong, fixed it for you.

Disengagement is the biggest detriment to the profession. This shows that pilots are engaged in the process.

So only 1 years and 9 months till the contract survey goes out...

What's on everybody's wish lists?:D

Doesn't matter. ALPA does not actually use the survey. I'll never waste my time filling out one again. ALPA works for ALPA and tells us what's best for us.

Not a bad start. That's what the MEC should have told the NC.
