Why change that significant portion of when Memrat was to be used in the policy manual? The previous wording would have covered this LOA without all the drama we experienced. It should have been used on all of the JV LOAs that reset look backs and wasn't as it was changed just prior to those.
In hindsight, it would have been beneficial to have had that JV LOA language and pressure tested it prior to buying off on it. Lots of pilot jobs and advancement evaporated. Would that not have been considered a significant change to our contract?
You state that Memrat would have delayed putting money back into the pockets of those that had PDs. Really? For how long do you suppose? Putting the language of the LOA on the secured side of the alpa website and allowing people to peruse it over a week is enough. No road shows necessary. So I fail to see where your argument against Memrat on those grounds even gains any lift all. Same goes for your argument of delaying improvements. BTW. Which ones? Everything implemented now is a company benefit. Ours are delayed until November.
Oh, and my thoughts for improvement: change the policy manual language on Memrat back to what it was.
OK. Make the resolution, you will have my support. I just want to know how you suggest we define "significant" so that other pilots agree.
There was outcry that pilots like PD were not getting his PD's paid back and ALPA wasn't doing anything to help.*

I'm glad that worked out
The delay otherwise would have been approximately 60 days. I will defer to the manual for the procedures that have to be followed since you seem to prefer brief answers. I wonder, do we know whether management would have made the same offer after the summer flying crunch?
Would you have voted for this agreement?
What benefit do you believe would have come from memrat on this agreement?
