The reason why inferior 737-900s are replacing 757-200 is because neither manufacturer makes a comparable airplane. No deep long term plan to take heavy metal from pilots.
The reason the 737 is even still around is because of SWA.

All with no compensation for what we are giving up and gave up. And we are outvoted by a group that is hungry for a 40% raise and has crappy scope already. Thanks again for "buying" us and "saving" us..
As a 756 F/O I'd be going from 110 and hour to 129 an hour. I'm not sure but I'm thinking that's not quite 40%........
Maybe the guys at MIT can come up with a formula to help you figure this out.

Uh huh. The proposed pay rates already reflect this, BS!

The scary answer is that the 320's will be replaced by the large RJ's. So, if you're a junior 320 pilot, either vote NO on the contract till they really fix the scope section, or send in your app to Skywest now and beat the rush that's going to happen a year from now!

Can't wait for a TA, just to see what it actually will say, as a whole. Still like the saying goes "Never fly the A model of anything" I think that may apply to contracts, the first one out, is usually the one they try to get away with murder.

They are receiving about 2 per months for at least the next 4 years followed by the 737MAX. Let's not forget about American with their large order of slugs too.
