Well that will only hurt us on the AA side since DL cares more about our A14 time than D0

That's part of the thrill for me. Dealing with all of the ish and trying to get out on time. Besides, i don't think you're sending the intended message.

Which becomes a work action at some point and then a bunch of alphabet soup gets involved and it never ends well for anyone

I think the only message sent would be an ACARS delay message

So in the All-Call they said the next upgrades would be in July. We're losing on average 10-12 captains every month. So between now and July we're looking at losing 70-84 captains. So basically we're waiting until we're behind the curve again to start upgrades again. Sounds about right....

Not surprising. I'm on a RAP 1 today and this is the first time since Christmas I haven't gotten a call out within an hour of starting my RAP. I honestly don't understand the logic behind stopping upgrades in the first place.
