Dunno. Interesting proposition for sure.

Anyone else tired of the insulting and patronizing emails from the JNC? They were bad enough in the beginning when they were trying to sell the POS TA they negotiated. But now it's honestly comical to see them bash the SkyWest TA. Obviously it isn't as good as our "industry-leading concessionary TA" because it wasn't negotiated by ALPA.

Not sure whether I'm more disgusted by or embarrassed for our JNC. They're absolutely clueless and out of touch (especially a certain clown on the committee), just like all the other corrupt politicians.

Most of the pilots I've been talking to are sick of paying 1.9% to be lied to by condescending used-car salesmen types in ALPA. I for one can't wait for the decertification drive.

+1 should be a rule if your decert. That you get all dues paid back. We know they have money in the bank

Oddly the only non concessions in the TA are the 6 hours per day for ALPA work and the Duty Rig for the "napper" on the NC. TOTAL BS

Funny how that works isn't it. Who needs to worry about the lower percentage of the pilot group on the CA & FO side who are on reserve, I need to make sure I get paid the same or more.

Most of what they have is sub par to what we have. They do get decent profit sharing. but overall, I admit their TA would be deeper concessions than our current TA on the table.

However, one list with SkyWest Airlines would be a fair compromise. Otherwise, no.
