Since you've mentioned offensiveness, you should realize that by your comments above, you're stating your belief that thousands of your fellow pilots have signed DPA cards to avenge harm done to Mr. Caplinger.

Carl

The latest ill-advised ALPA strategy is to associate everyone trying to de-certify ALPA directly to TC.

That's sure to unite the pilot group. :eek:

Negatory, good buddy.

No. That's what the cntract states. Please reference me to where in our contract it states that the company may take delivery of 76 seaters over 153 before taking delivery of 1.25 717s.

The measurement period has nothing to do with the ratio of 76 seaters to 717s. It measures the amount of 50 seaters to 76 seaters.

Please prove me wrong. Where in the contract does it state the company may take delivery of additional 76 seaters before 717s?

Sorry, first measurement period isn't until January. Yet another loophole that was neglected to be effectively communicated during the sales job.

Or would you like to tell these guys as they delivered the first new one today:

Pinnacle (9E) #3265 ? 30-Aug-2013 ? CYMX - KMSP Flight Tracker ? FlightAware

I'll give you guys a nudge. Sec 1.46.f exception 1

Read that, & then cut and paste where it says what you're claiming. I'd paste the language here, but I'm on my phone and it's a pain. Sorry.

You still haven't proven anything. Where's the language? Didn't 9e return 16 CRJ900s to a lessor in BK?

I think Johnson might be right on this but it should definitely be resolved.

Once again referencing Negotiators Notepad 5-12:

Delivery of additional 76-seat aircraft is prohibited until SNB aircraft are first added to
the mainline fleet, and then, a simultaneous reduction of 50-seat aircraft is required. This
is an event-based process and not time or date-based.
As Delta implements their
business plan and adds more SNBs, only then may they add more 76-seat aircraft, while
also removing 50-seat aircraft. Once a 50-seat aircraft is removed, the number of
allowable 50-seat aircraft is capped at that level until the next removal and so on. That
cap can then never increase.


Event based with no date attached. I looked in the Live Contract but could not find this - I did see the 2014 date mentioned with Block hour ratios but not in regard to small NB vs. additional 76 seaters.

I thought the same thing you did Johnso. I only found out about it today discussing the 717 delays with my rep.

Those 900s are still flying in DL colors... I believe for Expressjet.

Here's a head start for you. :D
