We are.......

 

Great. I'm not even saying it's his fault. But, if he has information to change my perception, I would love to hear it.

Come back Slow......

 

We already have a B scale and it's OFF THE LIST". An RJ B scale on the list is WAY superior. I agree we should fight to get it all on list AND full pay and bennies. But if we can't/won't then a B scale is far superior to what we have.

 

Technically, we're all on the B scale as far as inflation is concerned from the prior B-scale.

The regionals are C-Dish....

But we're too good for that, right?

 

Nah...I'll go easy tonight.

Nu

 

"..."...."............

 

I guess it's theoretically possible that Slow is actually flying a trip rather than sitting on FPL for "expectation management" duties.

Heh, yeah, I know, pretty wild theory.

Alien abduction, then?

 

That explains it. I'm the one that got him to hate pilots.

Guess he didn't appreciate my question to him of: "How's the wife and kids?"

Carl

 

He made a promise to himself that the next time he was called out on something that he didn't get absolutely correct, especially by a potential donuteer, he would pick up a trip.

For premium pay...of course.

 

I'll be back late tonight when I have more time, but I see nobody from the assembled forum wisdom has challenged this divisive, revisionist tripe.

The ENTIRE fNWA NC was in NYC for over a month working on the pre-merger announcement JCBA. Much of the fNWA committee structure (including Comm, R&I, and CA) was in NYC, eventually to be joined by the entire fNWA MEC. By late February a JCBA had been agreed to by the 3 parties, but there was no SLI, so no deal. Much of that same process was repeated in March, then the entire process was repeated again in June. Section 1 of the DAL PWA was substantially altered by the JCBA to include things like the fNWA Alaska code share, Compass, and the new agreement tightened permitted aircraft limits compared to the previous stand alone DAL and NWA contracts.

If I reversed the names above and said had the fNWA negotiators not given away CPZ we wouldn't have this problem, that the fDAL guys had no hand in crafting the language...how would that read? While the DAL PWA provided the framework for the JOINT CBA, the JCBA was a document that underwent at least 3 different sets of negotiations, was ratified by two separate MEC's and was voted on by 2 separate pilot groups.

That this forum allows this kind of stuff to stand unchallenged for 3 pages, yet wonders where's my response... Sometimes you guys need to look in a mirror, imo.
