Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?
Then explain how ASA flew 100 seat 4 engine jets that was not stated in the contract. Your statement above is incorrect. Delta until the 91 contract essentially had no scope at all. It was a long fight to get what we achieved. In every contract since 91 scope was one of the last issues decided. It came well after pay in most contracts. In the 01 contract pay was already set in stone almost a year before scope.

That one white 146 was a mtc spare we were given while the others went though D check in Bna. The year was 1997.
Nobody got beyond 5-6 HS 146s, powered by 5 APUs.

Randy as EA MEC Chair would be news to me and I was on the BOS LEC from '87-'89. Jack Bavis was MEC Chair from '87 to the end during the strike when replaced by Copeland, I think it was. Larry Schulte preceded Jack and Randy was at ALPA National during that time, because I met him there.
Yes, we did have side letters for Bar Harbor, who went bust when we did, but early turboprops and DC-3s are a far cry from today's deals. Hell, DCI's "jumbo" RJ is bigger than EA's fleet--284 to 325. Yes, the industry is bigger, but stll".....
Yes, Pan Am did right by taking Ransome, making it PAA Express. A friend of mine was #1 there, went to PAA mainline on the A310, retired from DAL.

I was referring to the BAE.
Doug Helms, ASA's number 1 on the list and Chief Pilot's standard brief in the day was that ASA had 737's coming. Robert Priddy, one of ASA's founders then split off to start ValuJet / AirTran.
