Omg, yes, totally! We absolutely did!







Wait, what?

My opinion. These are two very accurate posts.

Keynes was one of the biggest idiots in economic history. There are a tons of people that vastly exceeded his intellectual prowess in economics. When he didn't understand something, which was frequent, he labeled them "animal spirits" and prescribed endless government power for short term results as the solution. That is why he is reveared by the Chicago school morons and "helicopter" economists.

In terms of intelligence and the ability to comprehend things, I'm somewhere around here I think:

People that wear those shoes that look like feet.

As a junior bubba myself it gets kinda old to hear us complain. Of course I want more but gee whiz. Look around. I may be stagnating but I'm stagnating at Delta. Not many feel sorry for me when I b!tch and moan. I'm way better off here and I came from arguably the best regional to work for. Most Captains I fly with have been furloughed once or twice. Lost their jobs at TWA or elsewhere. Stuck in the dead zone. Been through bankruptcy. Now they have kids in college and are still trying to figure out how to recover from financial loss, pay for college and fund a retirement. I don't expect anyone hired prior to 2007 to have any sympathy for me. I'm happy these guys have till 65 to make up for some of the losses. They need the time. When us junior folks complain, try to think about the misfortunes of the rest of the seniority list. Now, about this fiscal cliff...:eek:

But they're soooo comfortable. Love running in my VFF's.

More intelligent terms negotiated at AMR?
 

"...Scheduling
–84-hour max average line value with 82-hour rolling average over the year (close approximation to Delta)
–Green Book duty rigs – (close approximation to Delta and most other legacy carriers)
–90-hour average individual monthly max (limits a pilot to a maximum of 1,080 credited hours over the course of 12 months)–Preferential bidding with requirement to negotiate PBS MOU by July 2013
–Current flight time/duty time limits until new federal aviation regulations applied in January 2014
–All sequences subject to review of Fatigue Risk Management System with APA input
–CPA bank eliminated, all fly-through time paid for the actual time flown in each bid month
–Reassignments past the original sequence footprint pay 150 percent
–Sequence protection notification and obligation windows (patterned after Delta contract)
–Pilot may opt out of sequence protection pay and obligation (management will not unreasonably withhold right to do so)
–Management will develop a trip-trade system that will replace TTOT as we know it..."

This is what I believe is needed: a yearly cap of some sort, with some ability to move time around (a.k.a. bow wave). 90hrs/month seems extraordinarily generous (towards the company), but I'd still like to see a number, so I would take 90 instead of no limit.

In addition to the ALV/TLV restrictions, of course.

I alos like premium pay reroutes that exceed the original rotation's footprint. We're too generous there as well.

Damn that proactive engagement... oh yeah, that's right, they are in BK:rolleyes:

the world is ending..... everyone knows why.

Fixed it for you, ts. ;)
