ACL,

SOOOO. It has been almost a month since the predictions of a plan/purchase, etc. Do you think your leak played you or should we expect some form of announcement soon? Read something recently that ual, aa and lcc are not as bad off as some analcysts have predicted.

Hey!!!! Thanks Super. It only took me 30 mins to figure out!! :D

I think the good things are still in the works if not coming really soon. We're a strong airline all things considered and we're still looking at cutting jobs soon, I wouldn't be surprised if other airlines are looking at making major changes soon as well that could be to our benefit. Just a hunch.

Your economic argument has been fought over, discussed, checked, verified and more by many experts at both DALPA and the company in both LOA 46 and the chapter 11 contract. They were rehashed again in joint contract. The only aircraft we can come close to flying at a economic rate matching the current DCI block hour rate is the E170/175 and even that may be to big a spread to be viable on a economic basis unless we can force the other majors to bring the flying back on a timely basis also. I would support a all out effort to do that in the next contract.

There will be new elections and new people at DALPA soon. When many of those people who are strong on scope see the real numbers and the overall effects of markets served and feed to the mainline as they access confidential data they will vote and act the same as the current members. The only advantage is we wont be facing a 1113 motion again unless fuel soars in price which should let us make some scope gains.

If you recall it was not me who stated that. It was someone else, But yes all of that stuff he hinted at should be public soon.....

Would this qualify for the "Cash for Clunkers" program 3 crj's for a A319 and we'd still be reducing seats!:D:D

I think that we are all talking about the 170/175 Sailing. And all of the anecdotal fixes to keep them from growing DCI once those jets are on board.
Also, I was under the impression that the MEC chose to take no action on the resolution to regenerate new numbers for DCI. It is my understanding that the numbers that the MEC has been presented are from the 1113C era. It is time for new numbers.

You sir, have the idea of the day. Maybe we should ask the President. I mean after all it would reduce Co2 omissions too :D

I do not see these announcements of further Admin and Exec positions as much of a surprise. They have been doing a lot of this as of late. MSP is a ghost town.
