Incorrect, if it is a DH only day, it can be greater than that.

Take 10% of your last DEC check total (Oct PS was an addition to that).

With the forecasts, I hear 2015 will be a little less than 30%PS and 2016 will be a little less than 50%. Can this be? I know these numbers are subject to any future negotiations and market conditions. If these numbers are true, we better not get rid of PS.

This is purely the FAA. Although Alpa and the company can make it a little palatable. An acquaintance at USair told me that the company will not build Domestic lines more than 8:20 (I know I know, they dont get PS). I wonder if sick usage has started to rise?

Well so we have two things we need to catch up with them on, no profit sharing and 8.20.

For a rough estimate each 500 million in profit sharing will net about 8% in your check. Delta is projecting somewhere between 900 million and 1 billion in profit sharing this year so your estimate for next FEB of 10% should be very close.
The follow on years seem very high. We would need almost 2 billion in profit sharing money to reach 30%. That would require a pretax profit of around 11 billion. The last forecast I saw was for a 6.5 billion profit in 2015.

Is 10% of your check meaning 10% of your gross earnings for the year?

Add flight pay to flight advance. Profit sharing is based on that amount. You can't use the Gross number on your pay stub because it includes a bunch of other items (profit sharing, per diem, etc)
