I believe FDX is in Section 6 now or very shortly. But they don't count. :rolleyes:

Let's see how the "scope improvement opportunities" play out with us...

I've heard the argument that they don't count before. :). So, are we before Southwest?

Airbus drivers get to add white flags and taller and taller feathers in their hats.

Be careful what you bid.


BTW, a furlough bypass friend of mine got a Dec 9 class and ATL 717.

Southwest has been in Section 6 for over a year with zero progress thus far, FDX has been in about the same amount and has a few sections done.

United has about 4 years until amendable
Alaska has about 5 years until amendable
American has about 6.5 years until amendable
USAirways.... nevermind

SWA doesn't count unless they come in lower.

That's Timbo in his rest seat on his way to SYD.

I agree its a crew rest seat, but I don't think that's Timbo.

This is Timbo in his crew rest seat with his... medal...

Not in a visual sense, just a self image sense.

SWA won't top us by much if any in 2015. They will be content to whistle past the gate with minimal improvements in the hopes that others help to return their historic cost advantage to more favorable levels. Their pay went way up, other's came way down, and the productivity gap, while still in their favor, has narrowed drastically. However UAL's new contract, while not exactly leapfrogging ours, is much better than the last one we were semi-patterning against, and AA and...omg...omg...IF USAir's self imposed single issue WTFYGTBMFSM contract at least puts them anywhere in the realm of average, we will be in a much better position. At that point, even if we are higher, the differential will be much less than last time.

And then there's "scope opportunities"...

Ferd's is interesting. 2 stars means he'll be on 2nd and 3rd break... the star means he'll take the takeoff and the landing.

Oh, and then there is the 6 year New Hires...
