Why is DAL still on a "B Scale"? Honest question guys. Got a GS for Sat morning for a 2 day trip. Capt was a line holder for DEC, I'm on resv. He gets 10:30 credit, I get 9:06 (if line holder, 10:30 credit for the F/O). Now, I really do believe that a majority of DAL pilots wanted that removed in the last contract (equal pay for equal trips) which was one of the questions on the so called "survey". But for some reason, a clause is in the contract allowing a flow -up for rj driver is in our contract, but not equal pay for trips for DELTA PILOTS!
Someone please explain this..... rj drivers are more important that equal pay for DAL pilots?!!

Indeed I do. But yet again, you're deflecting through Alinsky tactics of trying to portray your opponent as too stupid to listen to. It's old and boring.
Here's the point from which you are purposely deflecting: Both criminal and tort cases involve an allegation of wrongdoing. Both take time to investigate. Both take time to adjudicate in a court of law. 76drvr tried to minimize the hacking of DPA's website by his rhetorical of: "How's that FBI investigation going? ." You and many of your ilk tried the exact same tactics with the TWA lawsuit, but the jury didn't buy your ilk's tactic of trying to shame anyone as nuts if you didn't see things your way.
Don't get upset when I point out your tactics. I'm very, very familiar with the political far left tactics of Saul Alinsky. I've been fighting them politically for a very long time. Everytime I see you doing it, I'll be calling you out on it.

However, prior to the much-criticized C2012, there was no calendar day average/Average Daily Guarantee (ADG) which is currently 4.30 a day--AND it applies to reserves; reserves do get duty and trip rigs, but the only guarantee prior to C2012 was the Duty Period Minimum of 2 hours, which isn't worth much. You would often see a trip that would entail one leg out, layover, and one leg back, worth 10.30 for a regular line guy but only 4 hours for a reserve. Or, you would have a trip that would DH one leg, layover, then fly back, or vice versa. That would only pay a regular guy 7.15 (5.15 DPA for the flying day, plus 2 hours DPM for the dh-only day) and still only 4 hours for a reserve.
While not the complete "end state" solution, the Average Daily Guarantee goes a long way towards fixing both examples. Now, with the ADG, no two-day trip will ever be less than 9 hours, and that is the case for both regular and reserve guys. I know that doesn't fix the fact that in your case the captain got more than you hours-wise, but it is a step in the right direction. If we can negotiate an even higher ADG in our next contract, then you won't have this issue in the future.
