Thanks for the clarification.

I saw him at a recent LEC meeting, he talked extensively about scope and the scope challenges we'll face in the future. I got the impression he has a great deal of passion and interest in scope, as does the MEC in general.

That's encouraging.

Maybe someone can help me fill in the blanks here, and clarify the situation. (They gave us these exact numbers at the last CVG LEC meeting, but I didn't write them down - and they've changed. Maybe they'll do a brief again at the next one on Friday.)

Current Mainline fleet count: ?

Mainline fleet count to add additional "71+"(i.e. 76) seat jets: 767
(can be added at 3 to 1 ratio w/mainline AC # 768)

Current DCI "71+" seat jet cap: 153
Current DCI "71+" seat jet count: 153

Current DCI "51+" (i.e. 70) seat jet cap*: 255
(*includes 153 "71+" seat jets)
Current DCI "51+" seat jet count: ?

Current 51+ seat count as of a few the C44 Scope report is:

363 CRJ-200's
101 CRJ-900's
70 CRJ-700's
52 EMB-175's
24 EJR-145's
Equals:
-610 50+ Seat jet
-or 223 70+ Seat jets (Your question)

With the announcements made recently it should equal 235 70+ seat jets. Max of 255.

Just to avoid any confusion, there is a big difference between "Mainline Replacements" and "Replacements for Mainline"

Watch where they put the commas before you vote.

Quick question.

How long does it take to be 100% vested in the B-Plan at Delta? And can you ever touch that money before retirement or no? I've never had a B-Plan before so sorry if its a dumb question.
