I don't agree with XJT Pilot but I have to say that their concessions still exceeded whatever you guys had or still have in the regional contract that you worked for.

Ironically, there is only one pilot group that has never voted in concessions ....ASA. XJT, Comair, Eagle, Air Wisc., PSA, Pinnacle, Mesaba/PNCL, Mesa, Horizon all have. Well actually I guess GoJets and Compass haven't either, but they already have the lowest cost.

Since we know that our fleet will be reduced in the long run, why should we take concessions now for the inevitable?
I wanted to make my decision only after seeing it and I haven't seen anything in this contract that prompts me to say that I will vote "yes" to this. So, add another "NO" vote from the ASA side.

LASA 2010 hire date. I'm a No vote to anything that doesn't pay me for my time. I deserve to be paid from the time I clock in to the time I clock out. I'll vote no to anything for the rest of my life that doesn't do this.
I'm excited that I finally get to voice my concerns with a No vote.

You guys know that FAR 117 pretty much takes care of these things already.
So far...
-Ready reserve goes to 6.5 hours instead of 8...credit pay remains 4.
-No more call for release for reserves....checking skedplus suffices.
-No more standby for an hour for reserves...or any period of time.
*Mind you this was a quick skim, please correct anything you see wrong

I could deal with a lot of shortcomings, but I can't vote in favor of the perpetuation of such low junior FO pay rates. I know there's only so much money to go around, and I'm fine with taking that money from somewhere else, but until junior FOs make a livable wage (when considering the costs required to qualify for the job) it'll be a "No" vote for me.
