If only we had some means through which we could organize the pilot group to collectively bargain for our interests or take action...

If you are a FO at the bottom of the list now is the time to leave and go to PSA before everybody else does. Seniority is everything. The bases are only temporary.

Great for those guys, but here we are still sitting around with mediocre everything.

We haven’t had good news since the re-opening of the Mia base email back in early 2017... and even that you could argue wasn’t good news, it was just something we already had that was taken away and then given back to us. Like a darn childhood timeout.

You’d have to be insane to come here over PSA now. How many still will, just for a chance to fly the 175? Time will tell I guess.

Don’t underestimate those CFI cadet bros

Maybe let the current union leadership know that it is time to step up?

175 isn’t guaranteed, not having a union that steps up for the pilot group is guaranteed.

They’re busy fighting holding actions and losing mediation on PSIs. They don’t have a strategic picture or any real ability to organize and they don’t want help unless you’re in their club. They’re still fighting the battles of the bankruptcy not realizing that the objectives have changed. It’d be nice if they had some conference calls or virtual events, but you should go to base on your day off to kick it with them.

Agreed 100%, Hopefully this will make the pilot group more vocal towards the union.
