73 pages last time boys.
Let's see if we can play any nicer this time.
I'll start...
What's the latest on the 100 seat grievance. Is it going to arbitration? Is the 100th seat still MEL'd?

MD80 has heard correctly. We are being told 60 to 90 days to hear the ruling. That ruling will only decide if there are indeed 100 or 99 seats on the equipment in question. We have 2 planes with 100/99 seats. If we win, we have 100 days to negotiate pay rates. Then it will go to arbitration again to decide the pay.

The arbitration isn't about a violation of Article 21.2 of your CBA?
This is an arbitration about whether or not a 100 seat aircraft actually has 100 seats?!
Seriously?

The second in command, WH, is a real piece of work. The day he retires will not come to soon. I know a lot of you guys think BB is behind all the decisions, but WH is man that drops the hammer. I am a firm believer that WH is behind all the decisions that screw the pilot groups.

'The 100th seat is MEL'd', or 'this is a CRJ 705, not a CRJ-900', or the max certified weight issue that flummoxed the Compass pilots, or the Fed Ex 777 flying without a payrate - it's not a matter of if, but when this kind of treatment will come to your property.
All of us should learn from the tricks that some carriers are pulling on their pilots, less we suffer the same fate.

I wish I was kidding, but those are the facts. Company says seat number 100 does not exists. We say it does because it is there. I have said this before, welcome to RAH for those of you from XY, F9 and Lynx. I know the XY guys have had a hard time already and the F9/Lynx guys are in for some wild times.
