Who would come to a place that doesn’t have known crew member?

Oh the company is willing to negotiate for it. All we have to do is drop our D6 days.

No other company has to negotiate for KCM...

We had to at K4. Our D.O. Held it hostage until we signed our contract.

Things are unraveling nicely at ABX. Manager of crew scheduling resigned yesterday because of the incompetent clown-circus. This gets funnier by the minute. Was that overly toxic Joe?

Got that right! They could offer Kalitta++ and full retro tomorrow, but without KCM, I'd still tell them to take this job and shove it! Gotta keep your priorities straight.

Everything is negotiable.....what are you willing to give up? ABX has a max 16hr duty day. Would you work 20-24+ for KCM? Give up REA pay? We can get all our flights catered and home basing if we agreed to a suck a$$ contract like ATI or 24hr duty like K4. Me KCM is not worth a thing. All depends on what you willing to park airplanes for. JMHO

Mesa was subtracting money from their pilots' checks for it on the previous contract.

Its becoming just one of those things that is just industry standard. Even small 135 operators have KCM. We shouldn’t have to negotiate KCM, bc so many companies give it. Should we negotiate iPads or CASS? iPads saves the company money and CASS broadens the market for hiring pilots by allowing ppl to not live in CVG. Every other operator probably sees kcm as an improved efficiency. Therefore, why would we negotiate something improves efficiency and helps the company out. They should have given this years ago to help crews make it to their DHs.
