What's the GS trigger for line holders? I swear I've tried to find it in the PWA, but haven't.

3 points.

1. So the airline can't make airplanes fly without pilots? good to know.

2. Simple solution. Match 717 pay with 88. Then match 88 with 320. Which then matches 717 with 320. Problem mostly solved.

3. Stop all of the 91% of trips are 4 or 5 day trips.

ATL717
May trips: 82% 4-days and 9% 5-day = 91% >= 4 days
March trips: 84%/10%= 94%
Feb trips: 85%/10% = 95%
Jan trips: 79/09 = 88%
Dec trips: 82/10 = 92%
Nov trips: 80/3 = 83%
Oct trips: 81/10 = 91%





Man, it's so nice to make a post like that and not have an alpabot come and argue with me about it.

There isn't one?

For line holders there is. 75 or ALV-2 I believe. It will show on your time card.

I don't think it's the 4-5 day trips (at least in NYC) as much as it is the increase in trips that are non-commutable on both ends and the continual increase in EWR departures.

Thanks. I thought I saw somewhere 65, but I'll take a look at the timecard. Makes sense it would be tied to ALV somehow, I suppose

Not a latest and greatest post but can someone educate me and tell me what payrate I will be at during training when returning from loooong term leave? I will be returning to my old aircraft, 7ER and to a new base. I will require the full course and was wondering what rate I will be paid at (727/C 1st year pay...7ER/B 12 year pay? or something else?).

Thanks for the help,

AC

What type of leave? If mil leave you will be paid 7ER with years calculated from hire date. If personal leave longevity will be based on years worked.

Welcome aboard!

In NYC maybe.

It's interesting that crew resources used the argument that commuters like 4- 5 day trips as justification to build them, but then builds non commutable 4-5 day trips, puts them in bases that are not predominantly commuter bases, and builds way more 4-5 day trips than there are commuters.
