Just curious.. what would that price be? I mean we are downgaging aircraft with every order.. so what WOULD the right price for a piper cub be? Or more appropriately, a 76 seat RJ?

FWIW, I've never heard any of the Reps I've spoken with mention changing a single thing in response to the DPA.

Using that argument, could one say campaigning/voting against incumbent elected government officials "undermines their work?"
That would be a bit dictatorial/undemocratic, don't you think?
The concept here is "accountability." It's in short supply within the ranks of DALPA and ALPA.

Funny how the last eight pages of this thread has been filled with everyone getting fired up over "Carl's rumor mongering".
If any of what Carl wrote was true, maybe he'll share the names of the Reps he talked to so we can verify for ourselves? 
Carl, what's your source? (Other than "from talking to three different reps, the evidence is pointing to the opportunity" BULLSH!T.)

I thought you were leaving? What brought you back? The need to offer more useless drivel about conspiracy theories and black helicopter stuff?
Just so you know, "they're still following you, you just can't see them"!

Everyone needs to memorize what Scoop says here about simple "No" votes. You can disagree now, but when the time comes, the truth of this statement will become evident.
His second two points go together well...our union does not have a good track record of projecting how their concessions/agreements will play out...and harm us for generations to come (a little added drama). The examples are too numerous to list and too depressing to think about!
I think we can - my problem is that I do not trust our company and our union not to simply renegotiate Scope again in the future after they grow to the next Scope limit, or actually "pause" since no Scope limit has actually been more than a "pause" in growth vice an actual long term limit.

If mainline pilots would be willing to fly them for $70 an hour like the regionals are, do you think management would be all over this-in order to regain synergies, or do you think they have 6+ different regionals in order to keep dis-unity in place?

However, the Cub NG would require 73N pay, and I'd be willing to stretch the leg out to Valdosta.

Very good question... how much would a mainline pilot be willing to work for to regain and fly a 76 seater? Let's hear to some dollar amounts.
