As of right now, no, CAL pilots aren't being assessed for this merger. This is due to the fact that we had a merger fund of a set amount when all this began. It was mentioned on the latest Town Hall Conference Call that the CAL MEC is discussing putting an assessment vote out to the pilots for sometime this fall in the event that the balance of the fund goes below a certain amount.
Not sure what this fund would be used for at this time and why the balance would be going down since UniCal management has agreed to pay all merger related expenses to UniCal ALPA for the time being.
