Get!!!

Seriously this is why LAA are so far behind the times. A lot of the stuff I put on my "short" list are common at regionals, much less our counterparts at UAL, DAL, FEDEX, SWA,UPS, even Spirit and Alligiant. All have WAY better items we are now forced to "negotiate" for. They are basic pattern bargaining items. That's how bad it is, LAA pilots don't even know how far behind they are. None of what I put above are GETS!!!! They are common items in an average mainline contract. So the concern should be; What are we going to give up to get average? None of the items I listed should even be negotiated. We should give up NOTHING to get them. Oh and Profit Sharing also falls in that class. PS should never be a tit for tat item. It's a standard at all airlines.....hells its a standard at many large company's. I pity our group think stupidity.

What will you give up to get something everyone else already has????? Doug and teams wet dream question........with LAA and APA they get to resest pattern bargaining for everyone else. Come
on down to AA contracts....I dont think a lot of our pilots know how bad this contract is, and how long it will take to even become "average". Sad, just sad.
