Ok, so we aren't shrinking, we're just not growing as much. I was wondering how some could suggest that we are shrinking when we keep increasing the number of pilots on our seniority list.

So it's an industry thing, not a contract scope thing, got it. Thanks.

It would be nice to have Aeromexico JV language. Certainly, as you suggest, time is not on our side. What is the MEC doing about it?

Falcon7, may I ask in general terms what your role in the last TA was? Thank you.

I just went off your original statement where you said we were reducing capacity.

So help me out here. Is AM included in any form of production balance currently? I don't know which is why I am asking. I think you are right about the whip saw part of your post, but until we have an agreement in place that is seemingly what can happen.

Yes you may, in general terms an active Delta pilot and ALPA member in good standing.

Ok, how about specific terms. MEC, NC or SME?

Is Dickson promising top pay, which means pay rates, or top compensation, which includes PS? That would be a break from his past statements. I believe he's got a JD.

I think you give him too much credit. Just a yes voting surrender monkey. Payrates, payrates, $$$$, look a squirrel.

That's a nice portrait he uses as an avatar.... I assume it's Benedict Arnold perhaps??😉
