I'm too lazy...but.

Anyone care to put pen to paper and figure out that guy(or gal's) career earning potential including DC from now 'till when they retire?

My bet it would be not too shabby.......

Sshhhh, we're in contract negotiations.

It's great that guys are getting an opportunity for early upgrade, but what does that say about the current state of our airline (and those junior Capt lines) that thousands would rather bypass Capt? Quality of Life counts for a lot obviously and we need to get at least some of it back with this contract.

Probably 10% more than your average TSA agent.

This may be the most important question of all.

The individual this thread is about is a great pilot and a great dude. He spent almost a decade flying 747's before coming to delta to be an MD-88 FO. He lives In NY and reserve captain works for him. Nothing magical here, but I can assure you he is more than qualified. Don't hate tha playa, hate the game!

I've flown several trips with him. He's more than ready. Great stick, lots of experience.
