Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?
I'm not one of them. This is what happens when we shrink. Guys are squeezed and are willing to go to school at a shot at a left seat even if only for a year.
Gloopy our scope does not limit geared turbofans it is a seat count jet weight combination limit. If there was a 50/70/76 seat gtf out there, they could replace all of the current fleet of DCI jets with me tomorrow. DCI would by default get a 20 year repreive. Going for this limit is in effect a sunset clause on current generation jets.
Like I said, wait for a TA to make a determination. Unity is leverage and like it or hate it we as a group have to get behind the opener. It is that simple.

I'm afraid that too many others will demand significant contractual improvements instead of the either sun setting the 70's or altogether re-capturing it. Complete restoration and bringing 50+ seaters to mainline will take more than one contract, that's reality. I would prioritize that with Scope being the most important item; thus this contract. Pay and work rules will naturally come when we do all of the flying, next contract. I'd guess that ALPA is going to try and stop the bleeding in regards to scope and try and maximize the rest of the contract.
I like including the prop and GTF in the scope language.
And you're right on with the pay and work rules, when we do all of the flying, the pay and work rules will follow

For all you Jacket haters out there, when can we stop wearing them? Too lazy to look it up.

Oh.
My.
God.
I get hawking the credit cards and whatnot, but an agressive sales pitch can be condensed into about a tenth of the bandwidth we're using now. Seriously, its beyond noise pollution.
I'm about ready to start thinking that the PA needs to have a guarded switch and using it should require a detailed safety report as to why.
And instructions (and demos) on the technicalities of seatbelt use. In 2012. Really?

Flight Attendants are making more than either pilot per leg.
