Over the beer that you buy right General?
You betcha! Wait, are we talking about the first two rounds at McDonalds, or the last 3 at a "normal" restaurant?

Uh oh....I see, once again, I have triggered a Talking Point nerve.Fewer pax seats on the 764?Yup...298 on NWA vs 285 on your 764.We might have more business elite seats instead of coach seats more like it.Your 764 has 2 more biz class seats than our 330 Same with the 757-300. You actually are comparing the 757-300 to the 767-300ER?Yup....when it seats 10 more pax than your "widebody" does. 224 vs 214 on your ER. 757-300 has 2 first class seats and pays the same as the 767ER Come on now. How about cargo on the 767-300ERs?How about it? The 330 can carry 30,000 lbs of cargo. Are you comparing DAL's cargo capacity to NWA's? Really?Besides, I heard here that there's no money in freight, so it must be true. I guess that doesn't count for you guys. Why do our planes pay the same BTW? We brought the 757 pay UP TO the 767 pay. Also, I wouldn't be talking too much about pay here. Your pay stinks.Your pension stinks. In about a month our pay is equal. Why are we discussing what NWA pilots will make in Oct.? Leave that out of your arguments. Ummm...I did....until you brought it up.
The 764 is bigger than your A332, maybe not the A333.No maybe about it. The A333 seats more than your 764 and we have the same # of them (just A333's....not counting A332's)as you have total 764's, not even counting the fact that some (don't know how many)of your 764's are configured for 246 pax. The A332 is about the same size as a 767-300ER.NWA A332's seat 243 vs 214 on your 76ER. Since you insist on a dick measuring contest, how does the 764 or the 777 compare to the 744? HINT: the 744 seats 50% more than the 777.....and we have more of them than you have 777's.Don't forget to take away your cargo 742s (you saw PM I sent you, right?) too. I'll take em away when I see them leave, not when a mid level DL manager gives, by his own admission, his OPINION that they won't be kept, with no time frame mentioned.But whatever, take em away....that still leaves NWA with 42 a/c bigger than your 764's and 16 that are 50% bigger than your biggest a/c, of which you have 10.....remember, YOU brought up the 764....not me.I hope you guys use these arguments in the arbitration. Hopefully laughter will not break out in the hearings. Really DTW, I think you too know your arguments are ridiculous.Why? Refute my numbers. "Super duper Premium" widebody service.I agree, the superlatives being thrown around are comical.....but the facts about the A/C are spot on. Riiiiiight. We'll all laugh about this someday I am sure.
Nope, didn't forget about them. You have 21 of them, and they seat fewer PAX than our 330's. So you have 21 + 10 777's = 31. NWA has 32 330's + 30 747's = 62. Of course, DAL has 59 767-300ER's, but they pay the same as the 757 and they hold fewer PAX than NWA 757-300's.
I said nothing about the SLI process. I was educating Generally on the facts of your 764 vs NWA's A330's (and 747's). But since you bring it up, is it your position that age of aircraft flown should determine seniority? Fascinating. As for size, how many seats does your 737-700 have? Is it smaller than many NWA DC-9's?You obviously then support the idea that the DC-9s should be stapled to the bottom because not only are they the oldest and smallest, but the least paying piece of equipment on the property.

Richard Bloch's mentioned it in the past. You have heard of him haven't you?

It's certified for more passengers than a DC-9, can fly them significantly further and pays significantly more.
You're really hooked on the whole idea of a "staple" aren't you?

Just for your viewing pleasure,...the A330 can fit two ld3 containers, side by sideor a full sized freight pallet, the 767 can not, its too small.....that's a problem for the DAL General......it's not wide enoughUh oh....I see, once again, I have triggered a Talking Point nerve.
