Scope Confession?

[BeCareful!]

So, what's your point?

..as it pertains to DAL scope, the only ratios are those which allow a certain level of outsourcing...the number that can be operated by other than Delta pilots...

FDJ2,

If I understand your position, the objective of the Delta scope clause is to restrict "cheaper labor" (small-jets) by ensuring that any small-jets over the number permitted by the scope ratio are operated as mainline aircraft.

If this summarization is correct; then could you please list the contractual mechanisms employed for this purpose, their individual function, and how technically and economically they achieve the desired result?

Thanks
