PSA IS growing, but just opened up a Cvg base. A buncha Day guys bid over to Cvg, leaving vacancies in Day. Extremely junior street captains were displaced to Day

How is that the fault of the C.B.A.? I still don't understand the purpose (or tone) of his email.

Why would we want to leave clt until we know how many lines cvg will have and what reserve call out will be. We barely got any information other than its initial size. Thats a failure on their part for not communicating with us again. Maybe I should check the Facebook page it's probably all on there.

I'm struggling to think why anyone would bid from CLT to CVG. It's less commutable, and there's probably going to be a lot of reserve to start with. The only thing that would make sense is if someone lived around CVG and wanted to have a base at home, but those people were already at DAY because it's still pretty close to home. So of course that was going to be the base that took the hit, and of course there would have to be displacements to fill it.

This really shouldn't have been a surprise. What did they expect when they have a bunch of ex-Comair guys who live in CVG (and who probably came here because of the DAY base)?

Maybe he wanted the union to break the CBA to allow DEC to fill DAY and the union said..... "Ummm NO".

The purpose of the email was to pout, because management including himself failed to think things through.

Does anyone have any insight on training times at PSA? Last I heard was that people were waiting over 4 months to go from ground school to the sim.

The delay is over since we reduced class size. 5.5 weeks indoc, 2 for sims and 2 for Ioe. I'd say 3 months total training footprint.

Truth, I just finished and it took me 5.5 months from Indoc to IOE complete and I have talked with guys all the way through September that are right on my heals.
