Has anyone actually talked to anyone on the negotiating team and asked them how CDOs ended up on the last LOA? Answer would surprise most of you, it did not come from the pilots, and wasn't specifically asked for by the company. Call and ask and stop this speculating crap.

Since you've implied you know the answer, why don't you say what you know?

Please tell me that if ALL our Europe flying counts, ALL their America flying does too.

It's supposed to be based on the number of seat kilometers. All in. A 380 should be equal to 2 or 3 767s. Somehow though, I don't believe it is in balance... I just hope we get enough of their revenue from their JFK-CDG as they do from our SLC-CDG.

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.
