Flow: Changes - Flow back
What changes to flow agreements are foreseen/guessed for the next contract for ENV, PDT & PSA pilots? Is even more opportunity for WO management to meter flow due to ‘operational necessity’ likely?? Or will things go the other way & the flow become more accommodating to the WO’s pilot groups in order to suppress direct compensation without hurting recruiting at the WO’s??
As I understand it now (and please correct me if I’m full of horned bovine excrement...), only ENV pilots (rather than all 3 WO’s) have a provision that enables movement back to ENV from mainline if the industry goes belly up. Is it likely that the PSA & PDT pilot groups gain this same ability in their next contracts? Or will this likely remain unique to ENV for some reason?
I have zero agenda in asking these questions - I’m just trying to assess the real value of the flow as I continue to evaluate which regional I hope to fly for. I appreciate your thoughts here and thanks to those good enough to respond meaningfully.
