Regular Guy-
A couple of questions..
You wrote The meeting won't happen because JP required the UAL MEC to drop its grievance on the PS as a requirement.
from the other blog:
"I asked my rep if a condition of meeting was that we drop our PS grievance. He said that was true and the LUAL MEC said NFW!"
Is that coming from a UAL Rep or a CAL Rep? I have not heard that and if that is true, I will question Jay P at the next LEC meeting on that! It's BS as your Grievance is against the company, not the CAL MEC.
And it was also my understanding that the Grievance was also about the amount of your payout.. if I'm correct. If not, please correct me.
You also mention that..
Under the current LUAL CBA all replacement jets and new jets will go largely to the LUAL side of the house, inclusive of RJ flying.
Are you saying that you believe that all the 787's and the 737's that are currently on the (old) CAL's order book would NOT go to the CAL side?
I do not see any way that would happen without a major grievance filed by the CAL Side, not to mention the fact that you no longer fly the 737's and to date not one UAL Pilot has been trained on the 787.
Seems as one of the problems now is that daily, if not hourly(!) we are hearing new rumors and "hearsay" of what is going on, on the other side and from other councils within the same pilot group!
This is going to get messier before it gets better.
Then again, guess we'll know more by Monday night.. the first date that Jay H put down~
