PDTPILOT

Easy killer, I don't know who you're calling a tool. I'm not telling you or anyone else how to act. I'm just making an obvious observation that if the same thing had happened to a pilot that wasn't in good stature with the company, they would have used this as a reason to get rid of him.

Strike balloting opens July 23rd for two weeks. Time to man up and get 100% participation.

Has anyone gone through the current FO ATP program? From what it looks like we go down 1 day early to get "trained" 4 hrs of ground and 4 hrs in the sim, then just complete the normal CQ with an extra maneuver or two. Anyone have any further info?

That's pretty much it. A few did it this week with no problems. You get the ATP at the completion of the LOE.

So what are the sentiments out there on the line about the strike vote?

You guys think it will go through?

Best of luck if it does. Most of the career guys will probably be voting no.

I really hope everyone votes YES on this. There is no reason not to. The fears of us shutting down if we strike are overblown. We gotta call their bluff and put a stop to this stonewalling. There might be 2 or 3 senior captains in SBY that will vote NO, otherwise I think everyone is on board.

stoki

Good to hear.

Hope it works out for the best for you guys. Tell SBY to shove it.

It means if you have 250pic they will take you as long as you will have ATP mins by the FAAs deadline....
