Unfortunately, I think I read that in the Pinnacle BK thread. Looks like those 50 seaters will be around through 2020. :mad:

You, of all people Carl, shouldn't be the one making "speculative based" arguments about D-ALPA communication.

Huh, that's too bad. How many times have the donuts pushed to the right their expectations of a vote? Twice.

Not insulting anyone Carl. Quit being such a drama queen.

Your wife, assuming you're married, (highly doubtful) must be an angel to put up with someone like you, who's obviously never wrong.

NMB? The company needs OUR help now. There must be something else brewing out there. That's called leverage. DALPA uses the NMB as a potential excuse for low balling it.

Fine. I can live with that.

As I've posted in the past, in my simple math using average pay rates, a 30% straight pay increase would cost the company ~$450M annually, which is clearly in reach in a company forecasting a $1.9B profit in 2012.

Well, since you're new here, how would you know that? Secondly, why don't you prove your bonafides by telling us what equipment you're on and where you're based? With 12,000 pilots, I don't think that crosses the line of an irresponsible request. Until you and More Bacon (or Kochbloch) demonstrate some sort of credibility, you're wasting our time......

That is what I'm stating.

What is going on at PNCL is a piece of the puzzle which when fully assembled is a realignment of Delta's narrow body jet flying.

Exactly Bill. We know the company wants something now, and we can guess that with the AMR bankruptcy, there will be a second step. Maybe this deal is just the first of a multiple step set of deals, with each one returning something to the Delta pilot group.

So, take the risk with step one, or does sitting on the sidelines for step one mean we do not participate in step two?
