FedEx Express pilot's statement on a recent posting:
“How mad are you at the company continuing to espouse the same position?
--Still the same 15% pay raise
--Pay the A380 at the same pay rate as the MD-11/DC-10/A300?
--500% increase in health care premiums plus increases in deductibles and co pays?
--Paying for your retiree health care out of your current Sick Bank, but only if you don't get sick while you are an active pilot? And then forgoing your excess sick bank payouts into your B Fund to fund your retiree health care?
--Not a single change to any retirement provisions?
--Still no addressing our concerns on international scope?”
DAL, NWA, USAIR pilots reading this post would give anything to be in your position.
