Can someone clarify:
I've been trying to find an answer in this TA but can't- if this passes, unlike now where we can apply as a regular pilot, the ONLY way to get to mainline is to interview in seniority order? Aka a pilot decides to apply to mainline. There's no way he could get an interview as a normal applicant? Or we are all locked in to waiting our turn.
Thanks
You've discovered the dirty little secret to interview programs... They're meaningless. In this case, with the number of US retirements you won't need interview programs, and as you discovered... It actually might hurt.
So, if somebody applies and bypasses more senior PSA guys who were waiting for their interview... Will the more senior guy be able to sue saying they violated the interview program by bypassing seniority?
It only took the APA and ALPA 13 years to resolve their flow program...
Go ahead, don't learn from the mistakes of others.
Your company is crazy profitable; you should be getting raises, not concessions. If you can't get a raise when they're profitable... Then when will you ever?
Good grief, stop buying into management BS.
