Kalitta Pilots CBA update
#101
Now that we are past the amenable date, and if this offer does get a resounding “no” vote (especially from the 767 guys and FOs that have been slighted), what is the legality of the union officially asking us not to fly OT? I have a feeling that two or three weeks of no Over Time would immediately bring them back to the table with a serious offer, given how busy we are.

Please explain this statement. I was under the impression that since the 777 fleet was added and seat locks were lifted for a while, that any FO from the 76 could be flying a different airframe by now. If not, can they not bid off with the new 74 vacancy that just came out?
Otherwise how have they been slighted?

Are you serious? Just because the current pilots on the 767 are allowed to bid out, why should new pilots moving into the 767 have to suffer? I’m not sure if that’s what you are implying... but we can’t have a contract that only benefits 60% of a pilot group and screws the rest.
The 767 is the junior equipment at K4 today and will most likely remain so
The more senior equipment types offer higher pay possibilities - just like every other airline

serious question: how many times in the last couple of years has there been an opportunity for FO to FO bidding other than the initial 777 stand up. The 74 spots have almost always (this latest vacancy being the exception) been filled by new hires and lately the 777 FO slots the same, leaving the only way for an FO to escape the 767 being via upgrade.
