I wonder who signed up on that sh*t.
About 76% of the pilots...
back then we used to let pilots vote.


It’s not hard to say no to bandaids LOA’s....

No, want to make sure our guys flowing over don’t get a screw job over there and end up unemployed. Do like PDT/PSA and allow limited time to return to previous status in case training goes south or you puss off the wrong person.

Sorry. Not waiting any capital on flow back provision. You leave your on your own. Those are the hard facts of life. You want flow back then give double pay to those who are still here.
That seems fair.

Well, there are guys from all three carriers that have flowed and had issues in AA training or while on probation. **** of the wrong person and you’re done. The PDT and PSA guys are allowed to return to their previous status.... kinda like when you upgrade, if you don’t finish you can return to FO. It’s An insurance policy for if things don’t go well.

Just something for discussion. I’m not saying I favor it, in fact I don’t.

Then dont flow. Your problems when you leave are just that yours not everyone at envoy. Jeez, aa trng is easy, it all up to you. But we must take care of snowflakes, but there is always summer and snow melts.
No one here should be harmed because you(generally speaking) have issues when you flow. If you want, bottom of the list, no credit for prior seniority for pay or bidding, but we will give you dec, if envoy hires you.

It was discussed by the MEC in 2017. It was not favored then. Don't know if it's been brought up since.

Was also discussed in 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 & 2016. The other two WO both have the provision. Somewhere down the road consolidation will come. You’ll see this again. Personally, I’d rather the other two end it, and not add it here. It just depends what’s being offered.

The other things I listed, would all be good IMHO.

Very short sighted.

I agree on unlimited flow back, if you're going to give that better get something in return.

But every regional should have a no questions asked return policy. You can come back for up to say 15 months, losing only the seniority which progressed in your absence.

That's only reasonable given the nature of pilot career progression.

It's good for pilots because it promotes movement off the top... I know numerous regional lifers who won't go because their family needs the income... they simply can't take a chance on being that 5% who wash out for whatever reason. And the old guys are at greater risk. I'll admit it was nerve racking when I did it, but for me the stakes were not financial ruin but rather I would have to get a real job which I have the credentials for. But the thought of having to do that was nerve racking.

If you're afraid to go to American, you should really just stay at Envoy.

No flow backs.
