AWAC CA on the 200 will get $87.50/hr with with our pay protections it’s not difficult to credit 140 or 150 hours a month (non-covid times). PSA does not have these pay protections. Envoy didn’t have these pay protections when I worked there which made it very difficult to credit more than 75 hours per month.

Let’s hope it’s Monday then!

I have no insider information, but there is strong evidence something big is afoot here at AW.

1. Company spent time/money placing both 700 and 900 on operating certificate.
2. Company pushed hard to get arbitrated 700/900 pay rates determined in short order.
3. Company is hiring again even though dozens of FOs sit idle or are on furlough.
4. Company (presumably) posts on APC profile page that 700/900s will be here in July. That was several days ago. If it was an error, it likely would have been corrected.

Arguably, #4 is speculative, but the other points demonstrate financial commitment from the company...read: they wouldn’t invest in something unless there is something there.

I know people like to flame management, but the folks running the ship here are not idiots. They wouldn’t do all this unless the risk equals the reward.

All of this is my opinion of course, and completely subject to being wrong!

I fully agree with you, but just to play devils advocate, would the union even know of a deal much in advance of the rest of the pilot group?

One fact we know for sure is Gas Prices are skyrocketing and are to only get worse this summer, and the years ahead. Everyone here turns a blind eye on that fact. What good are 700s and 900s if they are too costly to operate? We know what happens to 200s by a brief history lesson.
