Buzz,

What dates are you trying to move, & what date did you tell it to cancel the transaction? I think you need to enter a process to 2359 on __ date that is no less then 72 hours prior to the day you're trying to move. IOW, if you were wanting to move 2/22 to 2/18 you would need to enter

22Feb-22Feb 18Feb-18Feb and tell it to cancel the request @ 2359 on 15Feb.

Anyone know where this info is now located?
I think there is a fairly long blurb on that in the recent crew resources news (or in the bid pack). I know it is not the contract language, but it is written in layman's terms. I think it is called "seniority on reserve."

^^^^^^ This

Since there are 3 separate months in next "month" you have to actually use the oft unused month box. I always thought that was a weird template until I couldn't get it to work...

It does contain employment opportunities (“expedited process”) and fleet changes compliant with permitted aircraft types of our PWA. It is not a “flow” agreement. Delta’s objective hiring standards must be met and no individual 9E pilot is guaranteed a position at Delta. The MEC finds the agreement complies with the PWA, ALPA Admin Manual, and ALPA Constitution and By Laws. We continue to study this and all evolving and emerging transactions.
The Delta MEC finds the agreement complies with everything going back to the King's Declaration of Indulgence, but never held a meeting to reach that decision.

I have my OE trip tomorrow with a deadhead only Saturday, then actual flying Sunday. I've already deviated the deadhead; do I have a "checkin" requirement for the deadhead leg or does just showing up and making the trip meet the checkin?

Hey Scambo. Thanks for the help. I actually called Alpa and they said it is located in scheduling alert 12-02 & 12-06. I'll check out the crew resources news as well. Thanks again.

Bar;

Just because the event does not violate the PWA nor does it violate the actual language of the C&BL, not does it violate AM Section 40, (scope was not changed and the DAL PWA still rules, per the Bridge Agreement) it does not preclude the MEC from coming to a consensus that they do not enjoy the fact that they were not informed nor part of the process. Maybe the understanding of the C&BL is not how the actual language reads.

Resolutions start the process of debating the issue at the local and then MEC level (If passed at the LEC level). I have read on here that you want the language changed to take out the ambiguity. When is your LEC meeting? Is your meeting before the MEC meeting where a passed local resolution will have the ability to be debated at the next Regular MEC meeting? (Feb 12-15) If so, write a resolution and get some debate of the issue at you LEC meeting.

If that does not seem like enough, use you ability to speak to the MEC during the MEC Meeting. Every pilot in good standing has the right.

Rogue24,

How did we reach a consensus without a meeting ?

Do we have unconfirmed contract admin making unilateral determinations on CBL matters ?

This "determination" before the MEC meeting in February preempts action the staff does not want.

The way I see it, the language exists in the Admin Manual. That language was ignored. Again using the speeder analogy:

WHEREAS the current law states the speed limit in the school zone is 25 MPH.
WHEREAS some drivers insist on doing 80
LET IT BE RESOVED the law will read: "The speed limit in the school zone is REALLY 25 MPH.

Same folks who refuse to enforce current language would be no more compelled to enforce any future language.

The CMR fleet agreement was signed by CMR management, not DAL management. If it were broken, the CMR pilots could only grieve it with CMR management, not DAL, regardless of their wholly owned status. Theoretically fleet counts could be maintained by flying for other airlines, or even an "Indy Air" or ExpressJet type of operation as well, but of course that never happened. Either way though, CMR pilots never "owned" any DAL flying directly with DAL management.
