I know I don’t have a dog in this fight as of right now but since I am waiting for a class date I do have an invested interest in how things go on this TA. I personally think that if they took out all of the concession and only did the swap of PS for Pay rates it would be good. Pay rates increase protect you for low profit times. So as long as there is a raise after you take out PS it is a plus for the Pilots.

I would be a no vote purely because of the concession during a time when things are on a major upswing in pilots favor. We were supposed to have a lot more 200 at Endeavor but we can staff them. There are very few new pilots entering the airline world. Eventually the big 3 will have to do more of their flying to pick up the slack of their regional partners. This also makes me ask, “How did selling scope work out for the pilots at the majors?” From my understanding a lot of pilots said it would not affect them and wanted the pay raise to give it up. So for those saying sick time and taking trips away from the bid pack for OE will not affect them, I urge you to look at the last time pilots said that to get a pay raise.
