I agree with you on your last point, I’m all for improved career progression for DCI pilots, but not at the expense of SCOPE.
on a separate note, any idea how this will work? Will 9E pilots with double no’s and/or no degree be able to flow? Will they be able to apply outside the flow? Genuinely curious if anyone at EDV has details on this.
edited for clarity
9E pilots will flow in seniority order with no exceptions besides currently being a captain. Pilots will still be able to apply outside of the flow. The flow and contract extension are void if LOA9 is changed to not allow the 35 RJs through negotiations or arbitration
