A lot of noise coming from some MEC insiders that we will have a TA by May. I would doubt we would have even had our first day of mediation by then, but that would be excellent news as that means we will have hit a home run.

since we're gambling here, I'll put up 250 bucks that we are not voting on a TA by June 1, 2020. Charity, 250 bucks worth of chocolate from Europe, beer, whatever you want. If I'm right and we don't vote by June 1, 2020, 250 bucks to whatever I want. Deal?

I hope I'm wrong, frankly.

Oh no. It isn’t my prediction at all and I have not been very optimistic, but since this is coming from the “as long as it takes” segment” there must be some confidence building that things are moving our way.

In recognition of all those honorably paying off their APC Bets - a little levity from the good ole days:

Default CAPT to FO

Im trying to make sense out of section 22 of our contract. It looks like if someone was to bid CAPT back to FO on the same aircraft, they would only incur a "one year seat freeze?" It states that if training is less than 13 days, then the freeze is one year. Where do I find out how many days training it is from 737 Captain back to FO? Is it less than 13?

Thanks,
Last minute stategery,
Humboldt

Training footprints are in the Delta Instructor Guide on your fleet page.

Is it the “Short Upgrade” module? I don’t see any modules that address short downgrade.

I just don’t want to make a mistake on my bid, just want to assure it’s just a one year lock.

Thanks,

I would assume it’s the same as a short upgrade course only in the right seat. That should be a one year lock.

Is there even a place that we can see when our seat locks expire if we have one?
