you got it, and the precedent for base closures was my NY base closure LOA that they forever hated me for holding them hostage for too much. They completely failed to consider the alternative was to let everybody sit home paid (which they were prepared to violate and arbitrate). They’re like a snake oil salesman with new lube. Don’t buy.

worse, 18 on…..

tell the MEC to stop doing the bandaid LOA’s now. That time was from 2016 until now. Now the physical shortage is here. Before was just a pay shortage. Wait for the CBA and career progression changes coming at other regionals. This management team is about to get a big wake up call.

Y’all got any of those LOA’s for trip rigs coming soon?

It's funny that at PSA management is facing the same uphill struggle to implement PBS because no one trusts them to run it in a way that benefits the pilots, or even operate it competently.

Then they have the nerve to reiterate that any QOL improvements will be tied to PBS. In this environment none of us should be giving up anything. They should give us pay and qol benefits, and in exchange they get their attrition to slow down.

Delta is number one. They have a $1B operational advantage over United. Maybe SWA if they call, but if you’re anywhere else it’s a no-brainer.

Out of those two, I would only consider Delta or AA.

Demand the right no vote.
threaten a DFR lawsuit for significant changes to the work rules or compensation.

Should I stay or should I go?

Delta had a 16.6% profit sharing in 2020. If your making 2-300k that’s a nice fat check. I believe AA was a few %. Per diem is $.15 more and pay rates are slightly better at Delta. I feel like your gambling not taking the Delta job, but it might just all come down to staying in Chicago which could TRUMP any economic or seniority advantage with Delta. Good luck!

Former DCL here, now at ABX (ACMI). Not a recruiter but fyi ~ In person pilot interview dates announced:
Homewood Suites-DFW
June 3-4 (Fri-Sat)
Hiring for class dates: 6/30, 8/2, 9/6 with more TBA
[email protected]
Text recruiter 937-469-4554

This place has its pro’s and con’s but definitely better than Envoy and growing. All 76 domestic and intl. Been here 9 months, if the economy goes to crap this isn’t a bad place to be with QOL, pay, schedules etc. reserve is about 5-6 months. Upgrades around 3 years. 1 base: CVG, mostly Amazon and DHL flying. PM with questions.

I’d like to get more eagle folks (RTP & Civ) over here. Fly safe.
