If we do, at least they’ll be flown by SWAPA pilots. We’re not stupid enough to give away scope like the big 3 + Alaska.

idl. We didn't get a firm "we will not give up scope" message from the union.

G-Rated
 
They could call it “Southleast”, treat all the pilots there like “garbage”, pay them 1/3 WN contract rates, have an “awesome” 20 year flow-thru to mainline(negotiated by ALPA of course) agreement.

Oh wait—-

nah, that’s been beaten to death by the other 3 already.


nvm.

ugh....pretty sure anything like that requires a membership vote vs BOD approval. Just hope there's enough pilots here that aren't stupid enough to sell the farm for a shiny nickel.

All good with me. As long as it’s flown by SWAPA pilots. I’d like to think that I’ve learned from the scope fiasco of the past even though I self-admittedly profess that I was part of it as an aspiring RJ pilot in that era.

So just an update. I was concerned after reading in another thread offers were rescinded for some in the pool. I reached out to my recruiter, I was told that was the case for some poolies, but not all. Im still in as far as I know.

I would assume that if they pulled you, you would know.
