The 190 rates will be pretty close to the 717 rates.
The base and trips will determine how junior/senior it goes.

Except the fact that the 14 hour rule our union gave away to cover open time has killed whiteslips and greenslips. And to think those guys agreed to that and got nothing. Idiots.

You folks who are smarter than me on scope (i.e., EVERYBODY), riddle me this: JG said during the last base visit in ATL that the scope language had to change in order to get the E190s on property. But scope has not changed...so what gives?

No. The scope language requires it to be at mainline.
Basically all flying must be done by Delta pilots... with exceptions. X number of 50-76 seaters can be outsourced. X amount of flying can be done by other carriers via codeshares and JVs.
Now if they meant in order for the company to order the E190 then we had to change our scope clause to allow more outsourced flying then that's just a flat out negotiation tactic and that was blown out of the water earlier in the week.

It's pretty insulting slamming the RJ/commuter pilots.
I'm a Delta pilot. I came from the regionals/commuters.
The regionals call DAL pilots "Double Breasted Douche Bags." The earlier posts calling pilots "regional pukes" is exactly why.
Regional pukes will fly circles around a military pilot on day one of line ops. BUT, take that regional guy, and throw him into a military mission, and they'll suck too.
It would do Delta pilots well to stop acting like they are better than one kind of pilot or the other. We are either good pilots or bad pilots... No matter what the background.
It's a lot easier to treat people nicely than to be a DB.

The military/civilian, North/South, Junior/Senior, disputes are entirely an internet induced "problem." That is to say there is no "problem." As with any group of 12,000+ people there are differences and opinions. The politics, religion and sex (taboo topics of polite conversation) have been some of the most interesting and entertaining debates I have had, and after every one of them we all went to work and got the job done. The respect and professionalism of this group of coworkers is tremendous. I enjoy our diversity and think it makes the group stronger.
Trying to work the word tremendous into my vocabulary. Trump is entertaining also.
Oops, what did I start now?

It's simple pilot douche baggery.
There's always been mil vs civ douche baggery , there's always been senior/junior douche baggery, the proliferation of the RJ's caused pilot douche baggery, giving away scope in exchange for a big paycheck and then being mad because the RJ "took our yerbs!!!" douche baggery, whatever.
