Well we could start by voting this TA down and going back to the table for some more constructive engagement with the company.

I am having trouble getting my head around this TA as a Junior pilot and recent flow. The thing I'm struggling most with is the regional scope. I know this has reductions and caps but 255 sounds better to me than 325 70/76.

I can believe that NWA got away with starting Compass during BANKRUPTCY and giving Mesaba 36 jets to replace the Avro. What I can't believe is that Delta is running the same play on ALPA and our pilot group and guys are missing it. Remember how ****ed the NWA guys were when Compass first started and how they acted like it was the Compass guys that created the company?

The same thing is happening again this time but the company is doing well.
I have reviewed the TA and I will attend road shows and continue to educate myself but I can't allow the company to start two more Compass Airlines (70 more jets). I will vote no and be patient.

We can do better on pay and scope and the reps in DTW and MSP along with one in SEA think the same.

Johnso29 not an attack on you just answering the question. I don't post much but read all the time.
