Now I need you to stop everything your doing! I have some urgent news.

It sounds scientific so it must be?
Perhaps this line of positive engagement with management would help build up our negotiating capital for C2015? Can we hire these guys for some consultant work? Their good if they can sell this.

Best comments:
- this article is a bit hard to swallow.
- Maybe that's why my wife is always depressed.
- Only suckers would believe this story.

Good point.
Changing the subject: What does the company want from us in 117 negotiations?
The status quo is that pay/flight time starts concurrently. However, the reg states that flight time starts when the plane moves under its own power--not the tug's.
Perhaps this is a chance to get "door pay"...with the caveat that our flight time doesn't count for duty purposes until the airplane taxis. Is that "latency" significant enough to merit a contractual change? "Latency...." where have we heard that before?

What was the vote that spelled the end of 3.B.6? I don't remember all the specifics, but I believe it was saying that if they didn't want to negotiate payrates for the 777, we didn't care if they got it.... and they came to the table. If that doesn't count, then I am wrong. However, that being said, a yes/no scorecard is meaningless and parochial.

Maybe. When I read about Delta providing service to mid size and small cities from DCA I have a hard time visualizing it being mainline.
Wait - maybe if we join with management and write congress we can increase the pressure to award slots to DAL. Think of how many more mainline flights we can ....................... On second thought, never-mind.

I used to fly lots of CDO's. The only difference now is that the legs are 6 hours instead of 30 minutes and go to places like Bogota. Rest wise, they are identical.
Everyone else, don't forget your coats. It is could out there.
