Now how much do spate aircraft cost per month? Why not eliminate that? Or.... is it worth it to pay for something not be used just si you have it when you really need it? How about 777 reserve pilots? Cut that would save a lot of money, ? No? But then what does a cancelled 777 turn cost?
FTB,
The devil will be in the details. If true, depending on the actuals language, it can and probably will greatly reduce GS's for all Pilots.
If reserve pilots are no longer getting GS # 2,3, 4 etc - regular landholders will be behind the reserve guys for multiple GS's. In other words - If the reserve Pilots will no longer see multiple GSs, either way the Line dogs.
Not to mention if they take away comp days - we will have much greater reserve availability all month > less GSs for all.
So while on the surface this appears to only affect a few senior reserve pilots working the "Rolling Thunder" beware, this will negatively effect greenies for all.
If true, and that's a big if, this may actually be good for us - There is no way a TA with multiple QOL concessions will pass memory rat.
