DALPA does have some similar language that is not as restrictive. The main issue that DAL sees is a 70 seat airplane is not economical for a 50 seat configuration. Further consideration is that flying ATL-CSG or MSP-RST, you don’t need 10 first class seats and 20 comfort plus seats. It’s a 20 minute flight.

Exactly. If you remember a year or two ago there was a town hall. The execs said they did a cost analysis and couldn't figure out how to make a 550 work profitably for us. I think they even joked about how they couldn't figure out how G7 could do it. (I have a theory.....)

Must be projected to meet FAR minimums, must have 2300 Total Time, and 800 company flight hours. Upgrade is just under 4 years at the moment (11/2017).

21-04 final is out, in other news. With this month and beyond as far as attrition, expect upgrade time to tank.

Jeep calm and carry on.

As in not many as many are leaving? I'm new to the game and don't know what 21-04 is/means.

Thanks. I saw upgrade time will tank and I took that to mean it will take longer. Thanks for the help

Anyone know where they are with filling class dates (how far out) and are they still holding tight with only interviewing CFI's and prior 91k/135 candidates only? That second part was the reason I got for my app not making it through screening back in May.
