It is all rumor right now.
From a former MEC chairman (that says he knows what is going on), the arbitrator ruled in the pilots favor moving forward, but there is no backpay. I was told that the company isn't happy with it, and the pilots won't be happy with it either. The company said that there is no way that they can or will pay that much and follow the contract. They are working on a settlement.
I have heard everything from flow of 12 a month, to 200% for everything greater than 83 hours a month, to min day credit of 4.75 with no cutouts, to the current bonuses becoming permanent pay rate raises.
Again, I have no idea if there is any truth to this at all. It is all rumors.
Hopefully we will find out soon.
