Who is good with Excel?
Can somebody crunch the final Excel list of RMA pilots with the Excel list of retirement dates on DeltaNet to come up with the ages of the RMA guys? I saw the graph from before the "opt-out" deadline.
I'd like to know if Sailingfun's claim that they are mostly younger than expected is true or not after the opt out period.
If it is true, that would be good news and would mitigate the disappointing 191 number.

That leadership is terrible. No pilots on furlough, A contract that is industry leading in the passenger industry. Raises that blow everyone else in the industry away over the last 5 years. Lump sum pots of cash everyone seems to forget about. Planned hiring, 208 new aircraft in the next 4 years. This in one of the worst economic eras in history.
Its funny how I ride a lot of jumpseats to my main job and my hobby job. All I get is barraged with questions on how to get hired at Delta. Very strange. Must be that terrible union leadership!.

So, it looks as if Sailing is right. I show 71% of the RMA (post withdrawl) being under 61.
The only problem is, it's only 191 pilots out of a little under 12,000.

Once again.....^^^^^ THIS
Much more "PC" than I would probably have said it.
I simply have to laugh when certain individuals call others too pessimistic or leaking glasses or whatever else. I'm guessing most of them were able to hold a captain seat by year 11, if not darn close, let alone still being in the bottom 10% of the list. And 5 years of FE duty (frequent tale of woe): I'd have taken that in a heartbeat over furlough.

This and also Free Bird's post.
11 years here and STILL seniority # is above what the company says it needs to run the airline. Bottom part of the list is one small TA efficiency away from another 5 year furlough. My analysis says our hiring through 2016 is taken care of by the new contract, and anything beyond that will likely be handled by some sort of merger/shrinkage. When the entire list stagnates for 5 years due to 65, it's way easy to talk rosy when you're sitting at the TOP of the world for those extra 5 years... things are different when you're at the bottom for an extra 5 years, especially right after more than 5 years furlough.
