Commensurate with a new order I am sure. I am betting these will be the old ones. Prepare for a large new order of big jets

Lets say this correctly. The decision will be ANNOUNCED at the end of summer. They do not want you using your 100 hrs of sick time.

The funny thing about the 30 E175's, wouldn't that pretty much take care of our overage? Wouldn't that put more (much needed) narrow body lift here at DAL? Wouldn't that just open the door for the E190/95's?

I like that idea. We should definitely run with it! Oh wait...?
Make sure your reps know exactly where you stand on this issue and what you would be willing to accept for pay.

Keep at them. We need to combine compass, and do it now.

TC. Keep em on their toes. Make sure they know what the group wants in the off chance they have an opportunity to negotiate for something like this.
It is better than they know, and have a baseline....
It is more important to get the jets here than a few bucks an hr!

They have to find homes for these guys. It does not mean that they award cannot be canceled or superseded by an AE.Surplus bid.

One more thing.
If 64 bucks an hr is below you budget, remember what you were making a year if not two ago.

You can easily make 75K on that rate. Trust me. Remember you come in on the top of the list.

Actually, this APA is for October flying. So unless we have a SOC by then these guys have to be flying their position on 1 OCT. None of them were coming off the Freighters. Doesn't mean they can't displaced when Anchorage goes away.

True. That is good. Also they may be a result of who has submitted paperwork. Remember that.
