How does the current CRJ900 pay rate compare with the 500?

You're choosing an aircraft (the 500) that will never be flown again by United pilots; the only one on that payband where the numbers will work in your favor.

If you really want to do an apples to apples comparison, the CS-100 should be compared with the EMB195, EMB190 and CRJ900 since the cabin space and market niche are similar. Is it properly paybanded? I would argue yes, when compared against those aircraft.

I have a lot of heartburn about these attacks on the CS-100. We've had scope creep/mainline retreat for more than a decade and we are finally at a point where we can end the mainline retreat by offering the company a number of options for NSNB aircraft with a pay rate for each option.

This sudden concern that the CS-100 rate is somehow B scale (it's not B scale; that argument requires quite a bit of linguistic gymnastics to mislabel it B scale) is just more politics in an effort to torpedo the TA. A B Scale is where employees for the same company are working under different pay rates for the same seat/equipment/longevity. If one were to adopt this flawed definition of B scale, then the 737-700, A319, and CS300 are B scale because they pay less than the 737-500 when adjusted for whatever narrow measure you'd like to use.

I just can't believe that the NO crowd is using this as an excuse to vote no. We finally have a chance to stop mainline retreat and now you guys want to fumble the ball. Do what Joe Pisarcik should have done and take a knee on the CS100 pay rate. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xlmUw2zcc8Q
