Yeah, what he said.

Your statement is very ignorant of the facts. The facts are that to avoid the 473 million dollar charge Delta has to spend in excess of 2 billion dollars for the replacement equipment. There is no cash savings to the company.

When it comes to outsourcing more 70/76 seaters everyone has skin in the game. Whether you are at the regionals or majors.

I have a lot of heart burn about this TA. But for god sake clean up your own house before commenting on family business that is not yours. That is what irritates me more than anything. We may have differences within DAL and we will sort through it, but I will not sit by while some rim job spouts his displeasure about any DAL pilot decision without calling him out on it. It is just what we need to to do for DAL pilots.

But you know I'm right on this matter otherwise your DALPA wouldn't be putting out scope of the other airlines and specifically what "might" happen at American. Pattern bargaining.

They (your MEC chairman) has also stated that holding firm (scope) on the next contract is not a definite as some of the Delta reps have been saying. I think the words were "permanent" and "set in stone".

It's tough for others to clean up their homes when the others continue to mess it up with the loosening of scope.
