Temporary restraining order.

TRO = Temporary Restraining Order.

Judges issue it to keep pilots in line and compliant.

Got it, thanks.

300 hours of credit isn't that hard if you're willing to red eye all over the system and then fly all day.

This individual puts his own profits above safety. Sound familiar...

In my humble opinion, 1.25x (for +82 hrs and VJA) and 1.5x for JA are all benefits that we fought for in our current contract. It penalizes the company for poor planning and rewards the pilot on a COMPLETELY volunteer basis. It is a work rule benefit to pilots and takes money (legally) out of Indigo's pocket.

With all the incentivized trips out there, some willing pilots have been getting "future" contract payrates long before we sign the actual contract. I have seen effective pay rates in the $800+ per hour range for some trips. Its a nice alternative - if you choose - until we have a new contract. AND it's a great big F.U. to Indigo and their unwillingness or inability to properly staff this airline. Oh yeah, and it keeps us looking like the super cooperative work group to the NMB which is kind of the whole idea (for now...) and avoids that TRO.

If you think that this is somehow "selfish and self serving" (isn't that redundant?) then I respectfully disagree.

Kinda like Henry Hill said in Goodfellas... "Dont wanna hire enough pilots?
F.U. Pay me."
"CAN'T hire enough pilots because you pay crappy wages...
F.U. Pay me."
"Wanna build crappy trips that always get dropped into open time...
F.U. Pay me."

More to the story...
 

Seems prostans has had a couple chat with our busy little beaver. He was redeyeing in to a 12 duty day and SLEEPING MOST OF THE FLIGHTS HE PICKED UP! A low level revolt of FO’s made it clear that’s not acceptable.....now is ok to wait for Barry’s shake?

Sounds like an FAR violation showing up for work like that - opinions ?

I don't think you understand the function of "prostans".

And the company is arguing in their letter to the NMB that they are "saddled with an exorbitant credit to block ratio which render Frontier unable to run the airline"....Ha.....Ummm they are the ones offering all the incentive pay!!
