I heard that the company who originally came up with the concept now can't do them for the price as quoted. Delta said too bad - that was our arraigned price, now the entire thing has stalled.
That's what I heard, so take it for what it's worth.

I asked the same question on here about a month ago and the response was that it was on hold right now because the panels were not doing what the manufacturers were promising. Sounded like an indefinite hold for now.

Honest question.
Have been off line lately.
In trying to get up to speed on thumb drives, an envelope full of CQ CDs, and the 10 lb FedEx box full of shrink wrapped manuals with no binders ( really? after making an all time world revenue number? ) I have a 117 question.
Would making long call reserve an 18-24 hour call like some of the majors had in the 90's solve a lot of the companies issues?
Any word from around the camp fire about where negotiations are?

sailingfun, how many active pilots on the seniority list right now? How many do you see on the list by the end of 2014, 2015 and 2016 respectively?

I asked about displacements on the ER after the summer at the ATL Profit Sharing/Pilot Meeting and was assured that there WILL be displacements. I wish it were not true because it will affect me (I am sure to be displaced after the summer after being reinstated in the last AE), but that is the word from on high. Take that for what it's worth before you bid to the ER in this AE, especially if you are junior.

I don't know exactly how many are on the list now. We will however be adding just over 100 airframes over your time span so i would expect 1200 to 1400 additional pilots.

They are going to waste usable line pilots that they really NEED on the narrowbody fleet now just to fill seats that they will empty before they even get online to generate revenue?
So are you saying the same Company that delayed hiring just to squeeze an extra million out of 2103 Q1 profit is going to waste hundreds of thousands (maybe a million?) just to displace?
That math doesn't work.
