I suspect, given a choice of a $0.05/hr raise for yourself or a $10/hr raise for FOs, you'd take the former.
You funny.

Well we know that PD isn't number 2 in your category. Just a few more to eliminate and we'll know who he is.

Here, I'll be constructive: one thing I'd like to see on C2015 is for the block hour ratio to have language that says the "highest of actual or published min" therein never allowing it to go down.

For instance, if 1.47 is the min and we're at 1.7, 1.7 becomes the min from that point forward. I want to get rid of the margin between 1.7 and 1.47. What I would like is 4.0. But at a min I do not want in a stalled economy or if they need to park a subfleet that they have margin to play with.

Still, I'd like to see 5:15 for us and an eventual increase up to 6:00 (for everything)
Ah..my understanding was that it was 6 min for everything.

I agree that the next step is 5:15 for everything over here.

They published numbers using a 16.5 percent raise as a result of the parity review. They arrived at 16.5 percent assuming we continue to get raises beyond our current contract.
The point was that we no longer have the anchor that is USair with captains making less than our FOs. And remember those are bankruptcy payrates for them...

We are asking for a increase in the daily average as part of the 117 negotiations. The company spent quite a bit of time costing it out and as far as I know has not been receptive.
