More RJ service. Yay. Seems like they're doing all they can do to avoid increasing the size of the LA base. How about giving guys who've been stagnant for 10 years a chance to upgrade?

Hey, they gotta do something with those extra dual-class Mega-RJs we gave em in C2012 in exchange for retiring crappy CRJ-200s they were otherwise gonna sink billions into and for buying B717s at a screaming deal they otherwise woulda walked away from!

Oh yeah, I see your point. Never mind then. 20 year upgrade for all the LA FOs.

AND, not only was it asked for by the company, DALPA obliged by forming a working group that spent just under six months putting the CDO framework together.

This group was told NOT TO DISCLOSE to anyone what they were doing.

And finally, they are back at work trying to put out version 2.0

Someone in the DALPA junta must really want CDOs.

I know I'm going to regret this and get massive amounts of "feedback" () for it but..................

"We gave them?" I would point out that you probably owe your job at mainline to C2012 and it's scope clause... And if you still would have gotten the flow thru, maybe you wouldn't have as many guys behind you already...

Is that kind of like "What do you mean by 'you people?'"

I gave him a pass since he obviously means we as in Delta pilots.

I gave him a pass because although he wasn't on property, he pretty well nailed it.
