I believe the RI update said estimate using 6.5% the FICA MED line of your 12/31/10 pay stub.

That's the closest single line on the paycheck, and 6.5% is also a rounded number for the estimate. FICA MED excludes pre-tax contributions you make to the DPSP and/or HSA. PG is correct on a more accurate but 2-step gross estimate.

Extremely Well Said. You have an incredible ability to empathize. We all look forward to brighter days ahead. But as you indicated, that "don't know what you've got till it's gone" feeling is a bit hard to shake.

Anyone know why we are actively "working with" the powers that be to transfer control of the L concourse in ORD? The article implied that we are in some kind of hurry to get it done and it flat out said the result will almost definitely be "new" carriers into ORD, which we all know will be VA. Why would we be lifting a finger to do anything more than the bare minimum required by law knowing it will help yet another super junior, pennies on the dollar and practically zero benefits and work rules airline to grow even more than their quazi-legal funding scheme already provides? IOW what's in it for us?

Log onto Deltanet, CPSC, and look at the LAX welcome packet for crew lounge info. There are also numbers there to call. I don't think anyone should be pming info about our lounges (locations, codes) when we have no way to verify someone is a DAL pilot (I'm not saying you aren't, just that there is no way to be sure anyone is).
Cheers

Thanks for the direction to the LAX welcome packet. I agree with the pming of this info, I was looking more for general info like do we have one and if so which terminal. At least to get me headed in the right direction.
Thanks,

I think the profit sharing check will have a flat 25% federal income tax deduction instead of the normal rates. I think it is federal law to withhold that, but I am not certain. Check out the federal tax line on the profit sharing, you will probably see that it is much larger in proportion to your other checks. That reduces the net. You can increase your deductions for this year to gradually get that extra withholding back, or you can wait until next year to file your taxes.

25%? I remember all my AF bonus checks had 28% witheld. If IIRC bonus payments are taxed at your top marginal rate. Not an accountant but I did stay at a Crowne Plaza last night.
