If the company needs to alter our work rules to fly this aircraft, then we have some negotiating capital. If they want A-380 type rules (in the CBA now), they can pay A-380 rates. The -777 rates will be set by arbitration, but the duty limitations will not. There will need to be an LOA to alter our contract to change our work rules. I hope we take no work rule concessions unless they pay the higher rate. If they don't need the CBA altered, then arbitration rates apply and we can try and readdress this issue next time.
If you were the NC Chair you would get fired for that kind of talk!
I'm guessing you aren't on the short list for a NC interview.
