The bottom 25% of the list goes back over 15 years.

I would argue new hires go all the way back to 2001 Dal hires and 1999 NW hires since they have all remained in the bottom 15% of the senority list for the past 13 years. Certainly we will move backwards again with this displacement bid. Yes I know that some senior FO's may move up but our group will move down yet again

Rumor to confirm or deny: SWA delaying 717 deliveries because they need the lift, paying DAL penalty payments, (DC9 to hang on a while longer?). Heard from a JS'er riding with SWA crew.

T and I have a lot in common. We're both staunch conservatives and we both enjoy sticking a salty thumb in SWA's eye.

He just goes very wobbly when it comes to holding "our" "union" accountable.

Replacing 757s with 737s...displacing 7ERB to M88B... every AE for the next 5+ years will be net negative in total pay across the pilot group.

Funny I just heard same thing from SW management type last night. So this is second hand at best. I did not believe him at the time.

If true, Delta has known for quite some time according to this person. Explains delays, no hiring, not filling positions on 717. I have to give the company credit. They did a great job making us believe the 717 were going to come here on time. Hopefully, none of it is true.

Hmm, best get my resume polished up. Virgin America is sounding better and better all the time. Better go over to their thread and ask about health insurance.

Par for the course.

"Lord loves a workin man, don't trust whitey, and see a do for and get rid of it. "

That must mean the 76 seaters will be delayed as well.

Regardless if the 717's come, I sure hope this won't slow down the 76 seaters.
