As a new hire it does not matter which equipment you get. It's all one list and you can upgrade into different equipment if you wish. Currently upgrade time is about 5-6 years. But that should start to drop since we have very few pilots hired 2012-2015.

So Pedro's thanksgiving email drops some huge rumors. Envoy is currently planning on opening up more bases. "Bases" as in plural. MIA has always been rumored to reopen even before it shut. LA is the only other possible one I can think of that has been thrown around the rumor mill.

So, I'm sorry if this is a dumb question, but I really want to know the answer.

Everyone raves about how great the scheduling program (SAP) is at PSA. Why can't Envoy adopt the same system? Wouldn't that solve a lot of scheduling problems?

That's what I took away from the email. From the News Blast "In short, the Company can pre-assign 0400 RAPs, however the daily proffering (and confirming) protocols are controlling. Arbitrator LaRocco made it very clear that if a senior pilot proffers for, and is denied a RAP that a junior pilot receives, this situation should be corrected and made right."

But if the whole list proffered for the 10 AM, and the junior guy got it but the seniors didn't, the arb was saying THAT would be a problem and would need to be resolved by the senior folks also getting 10 AM. It did NOT say that any time a junior guy gets 10 AM, everyone gets 10 AM -- that'd just be crazy
