I am holding my tongue till we get details. If it isn’t amazing we gave up the most leverage we will have in a long time for subpar numbers.

We’ll have our greatest leverage negotiating our JCBA but we definitely have significant capital right now. Let’s hope we used it well.

Keep dreaming? Of what, lowpayman, pay and work rules that keep the training center humming along at full bore to meet the staffing demands of the operation? Have you been down there in the last year or two?

Yeah, ok….instructors have it bad….

I remember back when I was based in MCO with 8 years in pulling gear for instructors in the left seat with 4 or 5 years getting 90 hrs of left seat pay and they’re b!tching about something.

Basically based on MCO with a “paper bid” of BOS captain, flying senior day trips they get to pick and choose that they wouldn’t have a chance holding even as a line FO, and getting paid captain pay while sitting next to FOs well senior to them who don’t have a prayer in holding any of that

Complain somewhere else

With CK sitting in the room breathing down the necks of the NC the last several sessions I’d be surprised if it gets sent back.

Every instructor I meet tells me how amazing they have it... Usually several times.

The juicers? That's to be expected. The last couple times I've been down there the discontent was palpable among the seniority list, ALPA lanyard wearing instructors.
