"But 717s announcement around the same time as a TA would make sense."
I just hope the 717 deal doesn't involve bringing in SWA/AT pilots with the jets. I have a SWA dude in my reserve unit. In a typical cavalier attitude he told me we were saving them by taking their 717s as well as the angry AT guys.

I think they closed all of the fun backdoor stuff.
Backdoor stuff to see your schedule before the little blue X pops up.

Off subject question about the Blue Angels and I can't seem to find this on google.
Recently I saw them practice but it was with ceilings restricting their vertical stuff. What I noticed was there were sizable periods, especially relative to the quick stuff at the beginning and the interim solo acts, when nothing went on and they were not in sight. They all disappeared. Now that could be a practice thing but I kind of remember seeing this at an air show once too.
So I was wondering, during those parts of their performance where they'd done a vertical maneuver do they just disappear for the allotted time? Or do they fill in the vertical parts with another maneuver?

I had the same thought but that doesn't make sense. The AT/SWA guys have a job. How about the furloughed UAL guys? They are ALPA brothers. I would rather see those folks get an interview. The low lying fruit on the tree is gone. DAL has a completely different hiring process. Our cool aid tastes different too.

OK, take it for what it's worth. Here's what I've got.
19% over two raises, 3% a year thereafter (I think)
+ 4% DC, with 1% a year there after
717's coming, about 100 of them
JV language for Atlantic and Pacific flying
Many questions left to be answered on scope and other parts of contract, but this may work for me on a three year deal.
