...and you'll continue to "drive" the 400 until you're 65 if you choose and exercise your date of hire for non-revving on an airline that is more than twice the size of your old airline. You have your retirement and the 767 "driver" doesn't. Other than your perceived loss on a list, where did you lose?

I think the arbitrators did the best they could. Am I fully happy...no, I wanted to be Number 1 on the list. That last sentence was TIC but I am still not 100% happy. I will move on and continue to live my life, however and treat all 12,433 other Delta pilots with respect and courtesy that they deserve.

This thread is titled DAL WON for gods sake....

Just give me a second though and I will run out and start a campfifre....lets sing,

"Cumbia My Lord - Cumbia...Cumbia My Lord - Cumbia..."

Yah--right.

Seniority is everything...which is what this is all about...just wait till planes are parked and you have put in a little more time into this profession...like over 30 lets say just for grins...then we will talk OK.

I really wouldn't say that "Delta" won. I think the award is for the most part fair to both sides.

If things start going backwards then perceptions on this could change dramatically. I am surprised that the fences are not bigger.

Let's hope for the best in the future

This thread started last night before anybody knew the award...check the time stamp. Bad title in my opinion.

BTW...I am behind former NWA pilots that are 4 years junior DOH than me.

Redtail, You are keeping this thread from being boring.If you are as senior as you say then in the next 5 years nothing other than where you might fly is going to change.Am I missing something ?
