My understanding is that the valuation includes all changes to the PWA, which means it does NOT include items such as decreases to the value of our 401(k) when the market tanks, increases to the non-contractual medical plans should we choose to use them, etc. FWIW, I've used over half my sick leave, voluntarily verified those instances in which I used medical care (much to the chagrin of my CPO, I might add
), and have NEVER felt compelled to fly while I was sick.
Forgive me, but how is that possible if the pay rate on that jet has increased by some amount?

I was thinking more that instructors would be leaving to get on the equipment while they can. They can elect to go where ever their seniority holds when leaving the training department, but after the fence falls they might not be senior enough to jump on.
Sounds like a large % might leave this summer which might be part of the reason to hire instructors now.

The PWA added ADG and computer training rig and increases in daily vacation and training pay increase pay v. productivity.
I'd love to see your situation 'cuz I find it to be an outlier, but I'm open to seeing how it could have happened.

Most guys I fly with have expressed surprise with how much MORE they made in 2013 vice 2012.

The 8.26% will be in the 2014 W2. He said his 2013 W2 was less than his 2011. His 2013 W2 included the 6.67% of pay PS, do you know off the top of your head what the PS payout was in 2011?

Flyallnite--you know you're onto something when the usual Dalpa suspects pile on in an obviously coordinated response with their tried and true talking points.

Good thing we made all those manning concessions. But hey, it's ok. The early outs made up for it, right?
Wait. Those were grossly overestimated in the sales job. Let's not forget that.

That's a bummer. I definitely made more last year than I did the year before. Same category and no additional flying to speak of. I was surprised by the change too, but apparently for the exact opposite result that you experienced.

Have PWA changes in manning been the reason or the Company reducing staffing overages that have been carried for years been the reason pilots aren't sitting around as much?
(although if you ask flyallnite, he's been sitting around plenty even now)
