DALPA Pay raise
I know there is another thread concerning this but want to address a specific point. DALPA contends that with GS and working the system line Pilots credit above 80 Hours a month which is probably true. IS it 108?
Well DALPA guys seem to get plenty of GS also so this makes no sense.
How about this - IF DALPA wants to pay themselves 108 hours of pay or whatever the number is how about they are ineligible for GSs? After the junior line Pilot has a shot at a GS then the DALPA pilot would be eligible for a IA.
Seems DALPA wants it both ways - they want to credit more out of the gate and also be eligible to "work" the system via GS etc.
I realize DALPA guys work hard but if we increase the compensation to the point where it is superior to what Line Pilots earn will it really attract the type of volunteers that we want or will it attract those who are interested in a very lucrative gig?
