It's like a dog looking at a wristwatch. It's not that the dog can't see it, he just can't tell time.

Cost per block hour needs to remove the training bubble and mass system inefficiencies from management chosing to operate a million fleet types. Its their choice to do that, and so we shouldn't be penalized for it. In fact, since they claim it drives a revenue premium, we should actually get credit for it.

True and a valid comparison when looking at SW. Not so valid when looking at AMR or UAL who have multiple fleet types like Delta. If they are doing less training it's because of contractual differences like pay banding and length of freezes.

9/9/5/5 would work for me as long as we include an increase to PS, true minimum day of 5:30, higher value for vacation and training, no relief on scope, a significant decrease to the ALV thresholds, plus no change to sick leave.
