we would have all benefitted a lot more if it did not happen. we'd all be mainline pilots now instead of regional pilots.

seriously, does any mainline pilot actually think that regional pilots are glad that mainline pilots gave up scope? the people that run the regionals are glad, the people that run mainline are glad, but the regional pilots? no, we are not glad.

Not a fair comparison. More like nailing the kinda cute girl with the lazy eye. And VD.

Will the majority of Delta pilots vote to trade scope for pay raises once again come 2015?

Hard to say. Many consider this latest contract Scope tightening, & not a sale.

It was scope tightening with respect to fleet and capacity reduction and Delta pilots held the line on the 76-seat limit.

It was a scope sale with respect to the total number of 76-seat aircraft that will be added to the DCI fleet.

Yup. Many of us more aggressive on the scope side of things consider it a sale as a result of added jumbo RJs, but most people think it was scope tightening since it shrinks dci.
