On the flow alone, according to the TA, is 30 a month flow. Thats 360 new hires a year. Does anyone actually believe this is a realistic number? This doesn't even take into account people retiring or leaving for other airlines. Current attrition at AE is close to 50 pilots a month. Thats 600 pilots a year that AE needs to recruit just to maintain status quo.

Management says we have enhanced flow. The TA has zero enhancements to flow. It is still at 50%. The only thing it offers is enhanced metering. This means the company plans on metering pilots if the TA passes. We currently have a grievance on the companies current metering practices. Why we would applaud the company for violating our arbitrated award, by voting yes, is beyond comprehension.
Either way we vote we will shrink. I voted no. Id rather keep my pay while we shrink, than lose pay while we shrink.
