167 an hour sure would be a lot nicer than my current 133 an hour...

$175 sure looks good to me on the -800.

Yep... I guess I should make my 167 a 163 since fifi is worth a few bucks less an hour. :) Regardless...

I'm telling you fellas, that is the elephant in the room for C15. We are gonna pay more for health insurance, one way or another, and it's gonna be a lot more.... I still believe it will be via imputed income... YMMV.

It's a smart move for the company. It gets the older people, who are more likely to require high ticket medical services, out of the Delta insurance pools.

It would be interesting to see how many older pilots get their insurance through their prior military service and aren't even in the Delta pools.

I believe that whatever we get in 2015 will be what the union negotiates though. They don't have to agree to anything.

That's a 777 being chased by an f-18bis ( the station wagon version).

You sure? I thought it looked like something out of the Mig family. I think we can shoot, I just hope the radar doesn't glom onto that big thing.:D

Totally right.

I sincerely apologize. That airplane that 777 was chasing totally looks like the two seat version of The Navy MIG-29.

Extra credit homework for sailing:
What is the pilot portion of CASM at Delta, what is it at WN?
How many ASMs are produced per pilot block hour at Delta, how many at WN?

Is it DAL 6.47% and SWA 8.65%?

http://cdn2.business2community.com/w...ng-600x431.jpg

you know I didn't know this but average pilot wage/salary at SWA is $229K and at DAL it's $174k.

But that's not all.

Starting in 2005 the average pay per DAL pilot was

2005 $155K
2006 $127K
2007 $129K
2008 $125K
2009 $138K
2010 $143K
2011 $151K
2012 $158K
2013 $174K

So what was the purchasing power in 2005 compared to 2013? Well, depends but somewhere between $186K using the historic standard of living value, $187K using economic status value and $200K if using the economic power value.

So if you wanted 2013 to have the purchasing power of 2005, you needed 2013 to be around 7 to 15% higher than it was.

So as you can clearly see, our problem in C2012 was we spent way too much of our own money buying the 717 for Delta.

No it's not. Everybody knows the T-38 was the one that got replaced by the T-34. Stop confusing people.

That IP is awfully short. How does he see over the panel?
