Super & all other N-DAL'ers,
If what NWA320 is saying is true, and you have to bid the
highest paying position you can hold to be pay protected, don't forget that the highest paying position that many of you can hold is 747-200 s/o.
S/O pay is higher than all categories up to the 767 ER. As of 1/1/09...
747 S/O..............$118.13 per hour
767 F/O ER .........$114.73 per hour
(Yes, 747 s/o's make more than 767/757 F/O's. It's been that way for a long time on the NWA side, but those days are coming to an end.)
I know the position is going away, but if it is still biddable if and when you get bumped, I would hate to see you lose pay protection over an oversite like that.
You would think the union would post some warnings for us in these turbulent times. Like maybe an AE strategy guide instead of 7 emails to tell me when my $10 bonus is going to be paid out.
