Fooled me, Barry. The hard sell really worked on you
The scope let lowers the bar for the entire industry. This has a direct impact on us. Its called the race to the bottom. Our leverage is a top down system.sportingrifle wrote: ↑Thu Sep 29, 2022 6:54 pm SCOPE. 55 seat jets and 80 seat turboprops have absolutely no impact on any AC pilot. It is not ACPA’s job to protect Jazz jobs.
AC Can improve training pilot pay any time they want. Its a them problem. Why do we care? Stroke of a pen.sportingrifle wrote: ↑Thu Sep 29, 2022 6:54 pm Training Language. Improves training pilot pay and allows larger blocks during training only at a pilots discretion.
Wrong. This concession is permanent.
Wet lease language and credits already exist in our contract. Why would we agree to concessions to make this happen?
No it doesn't. This is a permanent let.
The 24hrs means nothing when they will never tentatively displace you anymore. This allows them to move you without option to the 4th seat. Huge huge let. Oh, and its permanent. Where are you getting your info?sportingrifle wrote: ↑Thu Sep 29, 2022 6:54 pm Tentative displacement…a win for pilots who now will be released from flights 24 hours in advance instead of 3:15 in advance. Huge benefit for commuters. Not sure but I think unfortunately this will also end in 12 months.
So you agree there is a pilot shortage and yet you are advocating for an agreement that solves this problem for AC....and yet you are trying to claim that this will become a bigger issue going forward? I feel like im talking to my aunt sylvia heresportingrifle wrote: ↑Thu Sep 29, 2022 6:54 pm As far as squandering leverage goes - total non issue. The planned hiring requirements are making the pilot shortage an even bigger issue going forward. Much more than currently so. This MOA is about training who we plan to hire in the next 6 months.
I just confirmed with ACPA rep that my math on new hire wages is correct.
The webinar solidified my No vote 100%.sportingrifle wrote: ↑Thu Sep 29, 2022 6:54 pm You really need to get off the keyboard and watch the webinar or read some of the info. You are demonstrating that you really have little understanding of the MOA.
You thought 3 of the major permanent concessions in this deal were temporary in nature....I think its you that needs to do some digging barry.
