You'll get lots of opinions on here. But very simplistically... our pay is based on 75 hours of credit a month. If you don't work a day, you do NOT get paid 82/83/85, right? So to me, our wage/bonus merging needs to also be based on 75 hours per month. If it's based on 75.1 or more hours, we are giving up pay, IMO. An upgrade in our hourly wage of anything less than $25.56 an hour is a pay decrease.
On the subject of 200s and ADS-B... is it even possible to get them all compliant at this point before the deadline? I have my doubts.

No, I'm thinking it will be pushed further back, something like 2022 or 2025, depending on how much pushing there is. I think fuel cost will be the biggest factor in retiring the 200s. Followed simply by MX costs as the fleet ages in excess of 16-20 years.

The FAA has repeatedly said they are not pushing the ADS-B date again... it has been pushed multiple times already.. 31Dec2019 is the deadline..
We are being told that 9E is being paid money from daddy D to cover the maintenance costs of us doing the EV mx. In dtw alone it is a 30% increase in flights, not to mention different mx procedures and company policies. We were all given EV employee numbers to use to sign their books. When we asked about $$ they said there is no money and to feel proud that daddy d wants 9E to do the work... Guess how far feeling proud is going??
Is it already in our maintenance budget for the mods? Is RNP in our budget anywhere? Are we placing our faith in Trump to push privatizing ATC fast enough to avoid this, or will that actually accelerate this need? I could go on all night with what if's.... I'd rather sleep at this point now that the fireworks are wrapping up.

About as far as it goes for our reserves to also sit reserve to cover them, Compass, GoJet, SkyWest, and best of all for the Delta rejects... the B717. If they want us to fly those flights, then give them to us to build into more lines rather than staff more reserves to cover those likely cancellations from everyone else. We are becoming a reserve only airline outside New York.
