Wake up yourself. It's a different environment. They won't completely die, but why waste money on it? Again, if that at the group wants, fine, but it is a complete waste of capital.

Top end scope means far more jobs, and since you have apparently been asleep, the regional model is dying.
Yeah, insanity is right.
Edit: And I love how you ALWAYS spin everything into a junior/senior, old/young, N/S, ALPA/gods at DPA, thing. You are the farthest thing from a unifier these boards. YOU are the one doing that Jerry. Every post.

I freely admit I am against concessions (or any other cleaver thing you name them to hide the fact they are concessions) in this environment.
I think we never should have given this flying away, but we did. Now we are going to give away more?
You are wrong about my unity goal. I want unity. With just a touch of leadership we would have unity.
What we have is RH screaming at reps, attempting to bring them to submission. That is unacceptable. Maybe I'm the only one offended and disapponted. That's fine.
If RA was the MEC chairman he would have stated specific goals and we would be 100% unified.
Our survey is useless. It would be completely different today. The American pilots hourly rates far exceed ours and their $1.4 billion dollar Q1 profit was after the survey.
Now the dark side is saying the economy is going to fall off a cliff in 18 months. Really??
Who's side are they on? Not ours.
Puppets who repeat everything management feels them. Roll our the black swans.
All the C2012 boogie men are gone and yet here we are making concessions.
Selling us out for the min is bad for the Delta pilots and much worse for management.
Horrible for ALPA.

What if next year, RA invents a Mr. Fusion that allows jet engines to run on garbage. Or in a few years, the FAA approves remote-controlled single pilot ops...for aircraft with 76 seats or less. Or maybe it's something less revolutionary that completely changes the RJ equation. Let's shut down outsourcing now. And if we can't let's not cede any further large RJs, for crying in your moonshine.
One suffering from a lack of creative thought and debilitating risk aversion such as yourself, finds himself at a tremendous intellectual disadvantage against...well, pretty much everyone. But especially against a chess player like RA.

Holding the line costs zero capital. Unless we're dumb enough to value in pre-made concessions or fall for the "bargaining credit" nonsense of selling jobs to management. They have all the small DC-9 sized RJ's we should ever give them. If anything we should start sunsetting what they do have.

Yes, its literally that stupid when its said out loud, and I really hope we're not about to fall for it.

Every agreement for the last ten years has had scope concessions.
This one will be no different.
We'll probably get hit on the bottom with more 76 seaters and the top when the AF/KLM grievance magically goes away.

Bravo, tsquare. Just when we thought your nonsense couldn't get any more ludicrous, you prove us wrong. Arguing to keep 76 seaters outsourced.
