Life is entertaining.
Is it me, or does this survey look almost identical to our last survey? I've only lerused it a couple of times and just started it.....but I wish I has the previous one to compare it to.

Much of it does look familiar, which is good as I still have similar aspirations as last time, only more so. Come to think of it, the last one didn't look all that different to the one we saw in 1999.

Actually, I had the opposite impression. The last survey seemed well put together and made me feel like my input mattered. This one seems poorly put together, poorly worded and seems like it is steering us somewhere I don't want to go.

Idk, but either way, from my viewpoint, my opinion counts for squat.

Has anyone actually talked to anyone on the negotiating team and asked them how CDOs ended up on the last LOA? Answer would surprise most of you, it did not come from the pilots, and wasn't specifically asked for by the company. Call and ask and stop this speculating crap.

Since you've implied you know the answer, why don't you say what you know?

Please tell me that if ALL our Europe flying counts, ALL their America flying does too.

It's supposed to be based on the number of seat kilometers. All in. A 380 should be equal to 2 or 3 767s. Somehow though, I don't believe it is in balance... I just hope we get enough of their revenue from their JFK-CDG as they do from our SLC-CDG.
