Timbo,
The biggest savings is debt service on debt Dal holds on their ledger. Outsourcing allows others to hold our debt and Dal to pay it through operational service fees. We show less debt with a broader operational footprint with overall less debt service. |

Renups or an agreed to sli remove that risk. Real question is why would th regional guys want it when DALPA and Rhen Dal pilots are still giving up career enhancing jets to DCI?
If there was a strategic vision with the scope modification we just made or PWA there would be a stick involved. As it stands it's a one time mod with a next time mod of the 50's and 70's on deck. |

A in depth costing study was done. The numbers between the union and company were quite different however they showed even using best case numbers for us that a 70 seat operation could not be run at the mainline. When you start getting near 80 seats it becomes a he said she said discussion. That is how we have arrived at 76 seats. The company offered quite a bit if we would bump the number to 82 seats with a GW increase. It went down to the last hours of negotiations. I suspect now that number on the companies part was to allow Skywest to order the larger MRJ. They will not be able to do that with the current agreement and even Skywest management acknowledges that. The smaller jet complies with the current scope clause.
Speaking of I asked one of my Reps what the base by base breakdown was on the TA vote and he said they got the numbers but the MEC Chairman made them confidential. Really. http://cdn.ghosttheory.com/wp-conten...am-America.jpg |

Exactly - if we allowed up to certificated seats and GW, eliminated route restrictions and redundant management and training functions it becomes feasible. I would like to actually see the parameters used and compared in the study, however I'm guessing its secret as is anything where we might legitimately question something.

No, DALPA would not support that, it would create a conflict of interest since ALPA would have to sue its regional pilots to make sure Delta pilot's seniority is protected during any type of scope recapture scenario.
