haha! yeh RA wants a deal, no doubt about that except it's not one you'll like, a small pay raise in exchange for relaxation of scope. AA will pave the way w/ bigger jets for AE so the rest of the airlines will follow, just like sheep everytime one of them changes something (like paint jobs) the rest follow. But I sincerely hope you can AT LEAST hold onto present scope as I'm anxious to leave Rangoon for the big jets in the future! Godspeed! :laugh:
RA has never missed an amendable date for a contract, and he is proud of that supposedly. That doesn't mean he'll give away the farm, but there's a good chance it will get done. One thing everyone noticed on the conference call though was his apparent giddiness about dumping Saabs and more 50 seat RJs. Looks like he may feel the same way about those planes, way too inefficient. Btw, the 70/76 seaters have hit the limit, and it won't be increased, which is one reason you are in Vietnam. That's crazy. Do you miss Dayton, OH yet? Heck, it's probably a lot like Da Nang anyway. Cheers!
Godspeed!
