Correct me if I am wrong, but our LOA, when signed with Virgin, allows for language protecting only WB frames. I was thinking to myself... While this is great it leaves a loophole for Virgin to get a bunch of A321-LR aircraft. Another fine masterpiece brought to us by a crack staff of lawyers at ALPA.
Just before Morgado became the NC chairman, we flew a 4 day trip (of course he was on a greenie). At some point during the 4 day I said, I wish ALPA would quit negotiating LOA's because it takes away our stick during a full section 6. He didn't understand that. It now appears the company threatened to park us with the NMB.(BTW I a fine with that... Just makes them look silly) Of course they will, because we addressed many of their concerns with LOA's, In the spirit of constructive engagement, of course. Had we held our ground during the LOA that addressed the 117 rule changes (think how many GS were lost after that change to our PWA) we would have sooooo much more leverage.
ALPA's new hashtag should be.
#usingconstructiveengagemenrtogivebacksince2000. Or #fundingpayraiseswithconcessions
