That's all we know. An agreement in principle has been reach, it's non-concessionary, and our management notified the FAA of the intent to add the 175 to the certificate. Details of the TA to come next week.

Wouldn’t it be smarter of them to wait out initiating the 175 opspecs until after the pilot group votes? Seems a little premature.

Unless these planes were coming regardless of the vote.....
^^^^ This. |
And because they want to get started now because it takes a lot of work (apparently) to get a new aircraft program running. If it doesn't work out, they'll just stop the process.

It costs them zero $ to send a email to the FAA.. next step would be manuals, training, ect. That has little cost until they actually start putting the “team” together... probably looking real costs would ramp up in October. Until then not much...

Never too early to get the bureaucracy rolling....

I've heard most of the stuff is ready. Just pending FAA approval. That came from the training center last year.
27 August 2018 In order to dispel the many rumors circulating on social media, your NC wants to stress that we have not considered, and will never consider, accepting any type of "low-ball" offer in exchange for promises of aircraft or other deals. The NC does not feel that the latest company offer was a "low-ball" offer, as it was very close to what we wanted, and they are planning to meet with management negotiators again all this week to continue to work toward a deal with a structure acceptable to the MEC and, ultimately, the pilot group. While we are working out final details of the financial framework, we will also begin to iron out the work rule improvements that we want to achieve in Contract 2018 so that our agreed-upon aggressive bargaining timeline can continue. Management had informed the NC that they wanted an indication by the end of last week that a TA could be reached and ratified in a timely manner so that they would feel comfortable moving forward with the process of placing E175s on our operating certificate. The certification process is lengthy and expensive and we agree it needs to begin as early as possible so that delivery of aircraft can begin on schedule in April 2019. Rest assured that your union leadership has heard your concerns and is seeking the market-rate financial package you have all asked for on a timeline that will allow us to bring E175s on property. We will continue to provide updates as we progress. |
