USAPA $40 mil signing bonus
Anybody else read the recommendation for how it should be distributed? Looks like USAPA doesn't want any probationary pilots getting a piece of the pie.

I read it and found the recommendation to be very fair.
Having to be an "active" USAPA member on the date of signing makes perfect sense.
So, no. Probationary pilots are not active union members with voting rights.

Supposedly first year pay is going to be addressed in JCBA.

I'm truly glad 1st year will be fixed, but we'll all be on 2nd year pay by then so it won't really matter. Just doesn't really make you feel like much of a "union", when everybody is out for themselves. I wasn't expecting an equal piece of the pie, but a slice would have been nice. The sooner USAPA's gone the better for all.
