Wonder if it's meant to relate to the Pilot Commentary article from September's issue of Air Line Pilot?

Well, the caption does mention Delta and Delta Connection, and since they do make up the majority of our domestic flights, I guess they did get it right. The DCI machine will be full this weekend....I'm both and at the same time.

Twice as many captains being awarded on A330 as are being surplussed on 777. Twice as many positions added at a rate thats what $12/hr less?

FO positions are a wash seatwise but a loss when looking at pay rates.

I just got a jury duty summons for the last day of a 4 day trip. Will they drop the entire rotation or just the last day?

In the past they would drop the whole trip but now I think it is on a case by case basis. I had a similar situation about two years ago and they made me fly the first day of a three day, DH home on the second day to be home for jury duty on day 3.

Its in our unions hands....I'm not holding my breath.
