If Jeff was offering UAL contract 2000 rates it wouldn't be enough.

That statement is very heartening. It gives me hope that pilots have some how found some balls. But sadly, based on the POS contracts every pilot group has signed since June of 2001 when the Delta pilots signed the last good contract in this industry, I don't believe it for a second. I would bet my life that 51% of the CAL/UAL pilot group could be snookered into giving scope relief on 70 seaters for a UAL 2000 contract even at the exact rates they would have had at the end of that contract in 2004, and that would be minus over 7 years of inflation totaling about 15%. I hope I'm wrong. Good luck to us all. What happened to all that talk about taking back some regional flying? That seemed to go away pretty quick.

Winning the scope arbitration was no small feat Pipejockey....

I HIGHLY DOUBT we will be snookered into giving up the 70 seat scope. It has decimated our ranks and it is hitting us in the widebodies as well.

You would be wrong, Pipe. The combined pilot group has had enough and d!ckhead Jeff Smisek has done us the huge favor of even getting the most senior on board to fight tooth and nail to get an industry leading contract. His management style and arrogance has emboldened some that I thought "would never get it." It's game time and I don't know of a single soul not ready to fight. Bring it. FUPM

A larger feat would be actually getting the 70 seaters off the routes in question.
