Delta Negotiations Update

"Yeah, we'll follow the SouthernJets RJ..."
-smoke pours out of flight deck-

It's the highest paid RJ out there.

I guess someone should tell the pilots that Delta is hiring.

That and I've seen plenty of 717s

I call it the Mini Dog.

It's the "Angry Puppy."

It's the highest paid RJ out there.

For a few months earlier in the year, it was the highest paying anything in the industry.

"We don't want them regional jets!"

Yes. Yes you do. You want all the seats, pounds, jets and jobs.

Luckily, most of those guys retired, and those left are a minority on the way out the door. In the next ten years or so, 50% of Delta's pilot group will have been hired since 2014. The demographics are quickly changing.

The Old Man was (is) not one of "those" guys, and the scope provisions alone were enough for him to vote no (not to mention the rest of it).

He's #300 or so now if memory serves.

that I agree with. the 2021 claim I don't buy...those numbers just don't add up.

give us a DEN base and I'd fly a CRJ out of it.

I don't understand why people think the CRJ900/190 are below mainline. we have a rate for it. bring them on. the sooner we do, the sooner we bring all the flying back to mainline.

The scope position "should" be "We want all the jets. We want all the airplanes. All of them. Every single one. Be it a 206 heavy or a 747 on floats."

"WHY ISN'T YOUR STUFF IN?!"

"Pay for relax scope" game is alive and well it seems. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/artic...-billion-regional-jet-purchase-in-fleet-shift

Actually it provides pay for more mainline jobs if this is indeed the pathway to a new contract. 18/3/3/3 raise is latest rumot. 150 50 seaters removed. DCI reduced from 450 to 375 airframes

Minimum floor for Mainline Block Hour Ratio increased. Mainline flying must be increased for each 76 seater added.

Still looks like the same old story. We'll throw you a bone as long as you let new jets go to the "affilitates".

Scope choke would be getting the airplanes, but on the mainline certificate.

You just don't have any long term vision @ctab5060X

Uhhhh no

 

[Kingairer]

Why should you have to give up one (large RJ) to get the other ($)?
