I beleive that wet lease and furlouhgs would NOT be prohibited under TA1.
, AL is not the attorney responsible this time around for the NC's scope poitions at the table. My trust in him was gone when I saw him read, from what seemed to be a script, a non-answer to a question posed by a pilot about scope.
There were concessions in TA1. Objectively, the changes to R16, AVA, VBB, and student lines were concessionary. .
I'm not gonna respond to Rum Runner...I've spent enough time on this
The scenarios that compared block hours vs credit hours do not need historical data....they stand on their own.
Reading TA1 you would see that wetlease during furlough was penalized 2.5 SPF
AL is intimately involved in our negotiation still....it was even in one of the update videos....ask your Reps. The block 2 rep told me so...
You can't say "objectively" those were concessions....that is your opinion.....you don't get to say it's objective just because it's yours....I get that a lot of people feel that way....tht does not make it an objective fact.
Thanks for reading it. It did take a lot of time and effort to not only research itk but also regurgitate it on here
I'm not trying to defend TA1 here...I am just tired of people repeating stuff they hear from others and repeat it so much that they think its true...like the rediculous notion that penalties were dispensed with by TA1 and that Credit hour vs BLk was a giveway....we can't let falsehoods stand if we expect to analyze the next TA
