There's no way an arbitrator will ignore the 15-20% premium our direct peers already get and somehow index the rate to our already lagging horribly expired pay tables.

Look for another "Delta dot" at least indexed to UAL's (etc) current rates with zero concessions.

That could have some interesting AE effects if negotiations go on for years.

Call your reps and make some noise. Where's the rate?

Lots of rotations with landings in DCA and LGA in the Oct bid pack. 757 size loads with 1/2 the brakes into short runways, what could go wrong?

Really.... You ain't seen nothing until you've seen a L-1011 doing the Expressway visual.

The 88 acars/landing calculator, (whatever it's called), pretty much says the 88 cannot land at LGA, EVER!~

Yet it's done 200 times a day!:eek:

You'll get used to it!:D

Or the 767-400! Even the 767-300 was fun with a full load!

Trivia item. One of the big reasons Delta bought the 767-400 over the A330 was the 400 could go into LGA. Have not seen one there in years. Oh well!

I called my rep and demanded that they call the arbitrator on Monday and tell him to get off his ass and publish the rate or else! Rep thinks that's not a smart thing to do but what does he know!

It's a contractual limit, 60 days. There is no discretion. Unless he wants to hold up retro check for Airbi reservists.

Agreed. After 60 days, I think the parking brake on the 321 should remain set until there's a pay rate.
