I don't like to see furloughs when there is open time. Per the contract pilots who pick up open time are paid regulair pay-not double time of old. (no one should voluntarily pick up open time when pilots are being furlouged!!!) And re-assingment are also regular time, not time and a half (what ever did happen to that Harris Award?)
I see alot of line pilots being "re-assigned" because Mesa will be short pilots due to furloughs-and it will save the company $. Also any open time will be assigned to reserves. The 418 who voted for this contract knew this.
