Reports: Low-cost regional pilots considered for Swiss Boeing 777-300ER fleet | Labor content from ATWOnline

Wow, that's not cool.

That is a battle that goes all the way back to the merger of Swissair and Crossair. Another very poorly handled seniority integration.

If you would like to educate yourself on the matter here are some threads from over a decade ago.

Not saying the current action is right or wrong, just that there is a long history there.

Haven't the regionals pilots been doing the same for the mainlines in the US? How about all these different A B C pay scales in effect with some carriers too?

The regionals have been doing similar flying as the majors, but there is a huge disparity in the quality of pilots. Mainline pilots are carefully vetted and have tremendous experience, whereas regionals will hire any one with a pulse and an ATP. The ATP was even optional until 6 months ago.

Not even close to being an accurate assessment of the regional pilot workforce, but you're far too angry of a person (ex-Midwest pilot) to ever understand reality. Stop posting your garbage.

This idiot is a tool, he works for frontier, a bigger regional airline at best... And he will sound off like an Internet warrior, until someone proclaims his post sound a little racist, then he will whimper like a child.

This sounds like a lack of "scope" language in the Swiss CBA. Is it not?

tool of the day
