Of course we're the only ones concerned about it! The errors and omissions all favor NWA guys. What a silly statement.

I hope not. I tried the "pull out" method with a girl friend in college after I "put it in," and I was sweating it for a month.

Scoop - Tired of rehashing the same arguments that we were hashing 8 months ago. Ferd - hang in there only 3 weeks until the rest of our career!

Wow. This thread took off like a rocket. Sort of like the one when DALPA forgot to add our 747 s/o's to thier proposed seniority list. Oh wait!!! There has been no mention of that.......

I'm with Ferd. You guys are grasping at straws.

The DALPA proposal placed the second officers with large gauge domestic category first officers.

Page 692 and 693:

We move down to the next and it's a
repeat on the Delta side for the 767 first officer in the large-gauge. The remaining 85 percent [insert NWA 757s not flying international]. And then the 747 second officer at Northwest, when you look at some of the bidding behavior that goes on at Northwest and who's actually in those positions, but the pay rate when we look at it, it kind of fits in there, depending on what year the pay rate is.
But we think it's appropriate.

What's lame is a disturbing trend which suggests an effort to intentionally mislead the arbitrators for the purpose of advancing your careers on the backs of your fellow co workers.

You mean like stapling 500 Nwa pilots because the dal pilots portrayed the dc9s as "furlough jets"? Seniority grab off of the backs of your fellow co-workers

Bottom line is this is out of our hands, January 8th can't get here soon enough so we can get past slot of this drama queen discussions

No nothing like that! To equate blatant cheating and dishonesty with a ratio methodology based on FACT (pay rates, size, and documented evidence) is moral relativism of the highest order. You may not agree with our methodology but to use that as justification for out right theft and lying reveals more about you than you may realize.
