Here's the definition from our contract:
“Pre-
tax income” (PTIX) means, for any calendar year, the Company’s consolidated pre-tax income calculated in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States and as reported in the Company’s public securities filings but excluding: a) all asset write downs related to long term assets, b) gains or losses with respect to employee equity securities, c) gains or losses with respect to extraordinary, one-time or non-recurring events (including without limitation one-time transition or integration costs incurred in connection with the merger of the Company and Northwest Airlines Corporation during the two year period following the merger), and d) expense accrued with respect to the profit sharing plan.

August Crew Resources newsletter is out, stating the distinct possibility of a MSP 777 pilot base!
Also future 717 basing is dependent upon demand on the West coast. If demand is high enough, expect a SEA 717 base in lieu of a NYC 717 base.

I am fine with getting hard rates instead of profit sharing. However, I do not want this swap to be considered a "raise". Let's say your personal minimum for negotiations is 20% on day 1. Any swap with profit sharing should not be included in that amount. It should be over and above. Don't sell it to me as a "raise" like you did in C2012.

Profit sharing is paid as a percentage of pre-tax income.

Interesting - they say that the B744 base won't be going anywhere but the DTW 777 will be shrinking - implying that the B744 will be taking over their routes as I can't any reduction in the those long-haul routes out of DTW.

Good stuff. Hopefully the small NYC categories are played out and they won't be cramming any more cottage cheese into that overstretched bag. Almost nothing but early AM reports and late releases with as close to 100% commuters as you can get is a huge QOL differential between that and a west coast base. Sure would love to see that plane (or any mainline plane) on the Shuttle though, but that doesn't mean it has to be "based" there. Pulling for SEA 717!

Do any mainline aircraft operate the Shuttle flying, or is it all E175's?

Correct, both 747 routes out of JFK are being switched to the 777. That frees up several airframes to replace 777 flying in DTW.
