If you think selling JB as not being that bad (in ANY WAY) to potential new hires is supporting our pilots in negotiations, we have nothing more to talk about.

I hope they have enough former regional guys who will hold the line.

Was told from a P2P guy from UA That the union went to the company to open early, and they agreed. Versus the theory of Scott Kirby coming to alpa say hey let's Open early so I can try to alter the scope relief. Not saying he won't try. Additionally he tried this at AA and failed. We have pilots that got furlough for over a decade and got stuck for years just like everybody else , tons of regional guys here as well . no way scope gets caved in on.

You're right. It was 7. I stand corrected.
The point again is that it changes frequently.
Perspective, again, how many aircraft are we getting this year?
SEC-Show
It's 10. Still taking additional aircraft. Not getting rid of planes. Not, stopping deliveries... TAKING(more or less than expected depending on perspective) deliveries. Which means, we are growing. So henceforth, not stagnant.
None of this changes the fact that we are in a labor dispute.
