SCOPE at DELTA

[~~~^~~~]

Just playing Devil's Advocate here...

Just fly the damn thing at mainline and you can load it right up to its certified limits. That's the deal.

 

[ACL65PILOT]

That's is our deal FIN. Problem is that management is not making money at DCI, DALPA wants DCI to make money, one way to do this is to increase those weights.
I pray we do not allow this, but past actions dictate future ones. I hope we shoot this down, but I have my doubts. It will be more capable than an 88 or a 9. Now that is a mainline jet. It give more creditability to that resolution that was passed on the 13th doesn't it?
Local 20 guys do not forget that you have a few coming up in your meeting here next week.

If we cave on this, there is no excuse to say that DALPA is fighting scope. Look at the actions and watch their feet.

Scope is there to make outsourcing of flying as least viable as possible. So no, I want those airplanes to be as restricted as possible to make them need to have mainline fly them.


89,000 pounds.... makes me sick thinking that is not on mainline property....

I'll will second that. ANY increase in its benefit for Delta to use an rj is bad for mainline. Which seems to go against LM's opinion. And to make sure that its clear, I will even say that if there are weight problems that go as fare as keep me off the jump seat and I have to pay the price. So be it. No relaxation of the restrictions.

A call to the the union rep. first thing Monday morning is in order.

They added a weight limit...did they increase the seats they fly??? Does your scope limit weights or seats? If it limits weights then deal with it. Most operators and unions should know if they are being weight restricted. The union should have seen that coming and address it in the scope language.

 

[ACL65PILOT]

We limit on seats AND weight. We only allow the CPS jets to operate at these weights.

I hate to say it, but every time I fly on Delta Connection I realize how important it is to say no on any scope relief.

Thank GOD!!! you didn't have to mix your self with does connection undersibles, cosider your self lucky going from a PIC C-152 to B-737!!!!!

But has an undersible make sure you pass the word of your resend epiphany to your fellowship and stop giving "SCOPE" away like you and all legacies are doing or I garante that the undersible's will be parking CRJ-1000 and E-190 next to your little guppy...

remember we counting on you...

Good luck with that. You guys will cave just like you have time and time again.

Just wondering but why aren't you up in arms at allowing Compass fly those weights at their $hitty rates?

 

[Flyer1015]

Can someone invent a time machine to go back in the early 90s and take scope (and RJs) back once and for all?

They are part of the contract and were grandfathered in with the JPWA.

Dead horse. Great flow through......

They certainly do.

You need the time machine to go back to the 80s....However when you get there, you will get to hear the inflated mainline ego tell you that they don't want to fly "little" airplanes....

[dispatchguy]

my Grievance will be submitted on April 1st. everyone else should do the same.

Is the significance of that day a coincidence, or more than that...?

 

[PeanuckleCRJ]

April 1 is the date this latest bullcrap is set to become active. The moment one of those planes flies at this certification, then you can grieve it.
