I predict a DC9-10 will be resurrected from its grave in the desert.
disclaimer - Only $30,000 was allotted to bring it out. May not be enough to get it to the museum.
Buzz - Best wishes for a speedy and healthy recovery. Kuddos to Delta for helping out. I know that when my mom died I was pleasantly surprised by the help and support given to my family and I.

Then spend $30,000 to get the fAA to look the other way. Arent they for sale? or is it just the DOT?

I'm sure our pay is "very good" compared to a lot of companies, too. For example, my sanitation engineer would be pretty much pleased with my pay--prior to the bankruptcy, anyway.
But I feel we should be looking for reasons to raise the bar, not talk ourselves into lowering it
Incidentally, the HSA out-of-pocket max has gone up significantly more than 6% this year.

With the changes coming in healthcare in this country, I hope we don't spend ANY negotiating capital on healthcare other than maybe bridging the gap from 60-65 so the older guys can have insurance and leave earlier than 65. I'm fine with what we've got and would rather see our ammo used for more important stuff. Our Pay, Scope, and Retirement is NOT fine while I think the cost for our benefits is at this point. Just my opinion which I'm sure many of you disagree with.

Is there a mercy rule in College Bowl Games? 
Evidently not.
How about a mercy rule with PBS? Or MDs? Or MD-88s?

No kidding - I had a root canal in 2002 ($200 out of pocket). This year - $650 out of Pocket (with the Comprehensive plan). If we don't contractually protect our medical plans the premiums are going to go out of sight and kill some of our pay gains. By the way, we need things other than HSA's - not everyone is eligible for those plans (mainly retired military ARE NOT eligible for any HSA plan).

Buzz, I hope your mother-in-law recovers quickly. 59 is way too young to have things going south on you. I'm glad you can be there for your wife.

No one else seems to use it for some reason. I never liked the idea of an HSA- at least the way you have to do it at DL. I abhorred the HRA Gold... everything ended up being crazy out of pocket.
