The A321neo is 205,000 lbs MTOW and the 757-200 is 255,000 pounds, right?

Although interesting.. this had nothing to do with pdt pilots being the lowest paid in the industry with the crappiest QOL.

Oh sorry for posting about anything else.

I think we deserve 18 days off a month and credit 115 hours a month! Don't take the money!

Is national involved with the negotiations there? I thought they got involved at Envoy. Would be interesting if they only went to one property and not the other.

Highest Gross weight A321 is 214,000lbs

The E175 is heavier than the CRJ-900. Does this mean AA will offer more money to Envoy than PSA?


DOUBT IT.

They aren't negotiating at Envoy. Envoy's MEC requested ALPA national's finance analysts double check the companies numbers in an effort to keep them honest.

Well probably not, it's pretty typical for a union to not divulge all the details until everything is ironed out. But, my gut tells me if they went with just taking the money, we probably would have heard that by now.

National by their charter and rules under the RLA does not directly involve themselves in negotiations normally. The provide resources for your negotiating team such as training, legal and EFA team.
