I hate to say it, but this was negotiated and not brought up, by those represented those not on par, for redress until everything was set in stone awaiting signatures. If you were to fix it then there were others who wanted what they wanted addressed as it was a package full of gives and takes.

That's how it was explained to me when I brought it up to the merger chair after it was talked about on this thread last year or sometime before that.

Somebody failed to do their job. I'm all for fixing it. I'm also for fixing other issues too. I think the whole PWA needs to be looked at soon. :D

If we're gonna re-negotiate sections of the PWA to benefit small demographics, how about these:

1) NYC based pilot hourly pay rates oughta be $3/hr higher than anywhere else, because that place is expensive
2) ATL guys oughta get a couple of positive space passes every year to compensate them for the fact that they DON'T get any during CQ training, but everyone else does.
3) ATL guys oughta get per diem while in training just like the non-ATL guys do.
4) Non-commuters oughta get a couple of positive space passes too, to compensate them for the "call in honest" passes the commuters now get.

I could go on and on...
