I agree that it didn't mention any potential downside...but none of the letters we get from Val, Rich, or any of the NO letters ever acknowledge any of the TA's positives.
Well it is impossible for Envoy pilots to have 100% of the AA classes when PSA was already contracted to 4 pilot/month or 25% of hiring. AA cannot just override the new TA at PSA. She was either unaware or not being truthful.
The pay cut in the very similar deal at PSA cost me $330,000 over the life of my career if i decide to stay at a regional.
This is the loss of pay from year 12 thru 18. Plus 401k matching etc.
A f/o could take 6 years to upgrade. Therefor stuck at year 4 pay.
And the biggest kicker of this agreement is the 10 year deal.
10 years is beyond acceptable. If they want a 10 year deal then they should have to pay dearly for that kind of security.
Oh your author forgot to mention this monumental item.
