So when does the latest AE drop? Rumor is tommorow?? I'm a NH in the 74 person class that just started. Hopefully there is a chance to move west!

Ha...now we have a DeltaNet article about how we are the highest paid in the industry and the American guys want to be paid like us. I think this may be the first time RA has a fight to get a contract done on time.
Do any of your friends include bonus money or profit sharing in the amount they get paid? I ask my friends in other industries what they make and they always tell me that bonus money and profit sharing is not considered income. Why should we be any different?

I'd answer you, but then I'd be wrong and get called out for it.
It's been awhile (hear that Boomer), but you use your delta email account and somehow it links with the airline apps. I think you have to give your dal email to the person you are recommending, and they input it somewhere on air app, then you get a template that is the rec letter to dal and air apps...if memory serves.

If the average line pilot can't get the procedures and callouts correct on a line check, it's probably not the fault of the line pilot.

Why should we all be trained to figure our hourly rates should be less because we get profit sharing?

Sure seems like we're getting overly "cautious" and slipping to a VERY rigid cockpit. S acronym's anyone
