You guys need to get over this blaming people who joined after the vote. I'll use myself as an example. I joined PSA just over a year ago. When I joined PSA was still receiving the first batch of 900s. Why did I join PSA? I was from the general area as two of their bases. The only other close airlines were express jet and go jet. I went to the one that looked like it had a future out of the three. In training we got word of the Envoy 700s then shortly after training they announced the order for more 900s. As a PSA pilot I didn't sit one day of reserve. I got weekend off within 2-3 months. I will have my 1000 hours shortly and will be upgrading just over the one year mark with no prior 121 time. AA is not where I want to end my career so the SSP is not an issue for me either. So if you want to tell me I'm ruining the industry for making these decisions go right ahead because I got to bypass all the roughness that is normal regional life. I'm not trying to brag I'm just trying to say ragging on people for choosing quality of life is not fair. A lot of regional pilots had to indur rough lives to pursuit their dreams but that doesn't mean you should hate on others that chose an airline that let them avoid that.

Your roughness will be on perpetual reserve whe you upgrade. Sorry but that's worse because you never tasted working weekends and be in reserve as an FO.

We are at the beginning stages of a staffing problem, and instead of being proactive, the company is sitting on its hands. We'll see what happens come January.

While I agree with the over-arching point you're trying to make, I just couldn't pass up the chance to point out the irony of a man who tries to shame us into acting more maturely,...... and then calls us "retarded". I found that amusing.

I tell you what, I am going to leave this right on this forum for ya. That way you can use it as a quick reference in the near future when you are explaining to all the Direct Entry Captains on the phone why the Company has "chosen to interpret this section differently" and why you are so sorry "because you never saw this coming." Remember this is AAG who is calling all the shots. Don't think for a second this can't happen to you guys.


E. Reduction and Transfer of Flying
Changes of positions through reduction or transfer of flying will be accomplished as
follows:
1. When the Company reduces the amount of flying resulting in the elimination of
positions (a furlough or downgrade) displaced or downgraded pilots will be
permitted to exercise their seniority systemwide. Pilots will be displaced in
reverse order of seniority.
Example: The Company furloughs 80 pilots and downgrades 30 Captains.
Downgraded Captains may displace into any First Officer position systemwide in
accordance with their seniority; i.e., there need not be a vacancy for these pilots to
obtain a position. There are ten (10) excess First Officers in Knoxville once the
downgraded Captains have been awarded First Officer domiciles. The ten (10)
most junior Knoxville pilots may be displaced to other domiciles that their
seniority can hold.
2. When flying is transferred from one (1) domicile to another, the vacancies created
will be awarded by system seniority within equipment and status. In the event
that not all the vacancies are filled, such vacancies will be assigned to pilots,
within equipment and status, from the domicile from which the flying is
transferred in the reverse order of their seniority. Pilots in the domicile from
which flying is transferred may not displace other pilots in the system so long as
vacancies within status and equipment exist in the system.
Example: Flying is transferred from Dayton to Charlotte. The positions created
by the transfer of flying will first be awarded within equipment and status, to
pilots systemwide, with any resulting secondary vacancies being filled by
displaced Dayton pilots. Pilots in domiciles other than Dayton will not be
displaced.
3. If vacancies are posted as a result of an equipment change concurrently with a
transfer of flying, the vacancies will be awarded systemwide. A pilot whose
position is eliminated by the transfer of flying will be awarded any vacancy his
seniority can hold systemwide and may not displace other pilots in the system.
Example: Dayton-based CRJ flying is being discontinued or reduced.
Concurrently, new lines of EMB-170 flying are established in Charlotte. The
vacancies in Charlotte are awarded systemwide. Displaced Dayton pilots must fill
vacancies and may not displace other pilots in the system.

Where is there a "reduction" in flying. You really are new aren't you? We are adding airplane and flying every month. LOL
