Would anyone have a copy of our CFO giving a presentation to Deutche Bank earlier this year or maybe late last? Not the one with RA and such but a solo presentation....he made a few great remarks involving profit sharing and the way that the company was using it, basically, as a relief valve for employee compensation....good times equal good money, bad times reduces employee compensation to a baseline level... It could blood info to bolster the argument to keeping profit sharing right where it is...

There's only one person talking about reducing profit sharing, and he's a troll.
(It's the same guy that says we should get a 14% payraise because of AA pilot talks, but then laments the billions in concessions and says we need a "snap up" to 2004+inflation. Which is it?)

Contact any of your reps. It's not part of the discussion. Don't feed the troll.

Are you saying the company won't try to reduce or eliminate our profit sharing in the next contract?

Give Mike Hanson a call and report back to us on whether or not you think we will reduce profit sharing. Or you can continue to live in dream world.

I suppose you were one of the many who said I was full of crap on C2012 when I said we were going to allow many more 76 seat RJs.

I hope more than anything to be wrong. Remember, the reps are flying the line. Just like last time, it is the admin insiders who make the concessions.

In C2012 the MEC never authorized or discussed reducing profit sharing. O'Malley agreed to it without MEC knowledge and it was jammed down their throats. Same plan this time.

Default 22D2 staffing report

I am kind of confused by this. Is this minimum pilot count by category/seat that is required contractually? Is it safe to assume there will be slightly more in each category than the minimum required?

Thanks

As you were not on the MEC at the time, you have no way to know whether the first statement is true. And you have no way of knowing whether your last statement is true, either.

There are less RJ aircraft, less RJ seats being flown, less RJ pilots, less Delta passengers being deceived about who is flying their aircraft. Those are facts of C2012. An RJ seat is an RJ seat no matter if it is a 50 or 76 seater. The economics and staffing will further reduce the numbers. Just sayin.
