Yes there are snapback provisions and profit sharing for us depending on how much the company makes. Oil tumbling down has nothing to do with how much XJT makes unless CAL gives us more block hours, we do not pay for fuel.
Prop sync: You are correct in that pilot contracts do not SOLELY dictate CPAs but labor is the main cost at a vendor "airline." Cheaper labor makes a huge difference in the regional world. I have heard (although I am not sure if I agree) that XJT is now cheaper per block hour than MESA on the 50 seat rate, if that is true that makes XJT a very effecient company to have the highest paid captains and one of the lowest CPA rates.
