It seems to me the litigation represents more of a threat of a DFR suit than allowing furloughed Frontier Pilots to bid the 190’s over native RAHer’s.
In fact, it seems the native RAHer’s could make a decent DFR claim based on a conflict of interest by the IBT in working to take their upgrades and bidding positions away from them and give them to Frontier Pilots.
Have any Frontier Pilots (IBT members or not) expressed an interest in flying the 190’s or Q’s? Or is the IBT charging ahead for the sole purpose of charging ahead? As in, is there anyone asking to have their interests in the 190’s and Q’s advanced or is it all in the IBT’s head?
Can you prove anyone will be out of work if LOA67 is overturned or are you just guessing at it? Concrete proof now... it appears that you may be a little fat on pilots as it is now with VLOAs being offered.
The Q and 190 are outside of the fence. What DFR suit could come from that? The vacancies are not "their upgrades" but open to everyone on the single seniority list from all companies. It is irrelevant whether a F9 pilot would bid it or not. It has to be made open to everyone on the single list.
