Not to flame, but has the MRJ even flown? It's going 2yrs behind schedule.

Presently being shipped to Washington state for flight tests.

It's insane to call that plane a regional jet..

SKW has these on order too. Problem is, where and what scope has room for it?

They are 70 and 90 seat jets. Stick a first class in there and they are no different then any other RJ no?

Correct, but isn't scope near or maxed out on large RJ's??? I know a lot can change from now to 2017 but I wouldn't get my hopes up or look forward to flying an MRJ. Besides, there's still crap load of testing, FAA approval, training syllabuses ect... Before I'd start bringing up payrates on an AC that hasn't passed the "sniff" test yet.

Yeah it looks good now, but the worm can take a very wicked turn quickly in this industry. Plus our 70 seat pay rates are much better when the MRJ gets here.

So this guy should choose TSA today because he might top out as a captain 12 years from now?

You speculating about the MRJ is that same thing you complained about like one sentence prior. That thing isn't on your property. It may never be, or it might......Does that sound familiar?

Honestly why are you so hostile about this?

No one is acting this way towards you but yet you continue to bristle.

What's your deal?

My understanding is that the only company that currently has anything even close to resembling what we have is Horizon.

A few places have "line improvement." It's not the same.

As far as the other language, well that is scheduled for arbitration here in a month or so.

That language makes your 150% for open time pickup pale in comparison. The company doesn't have to designate anything(although it is an option) for us to get 150%.....WITHOUT losing days off.

This could of course become a moot point if we lose the arbitration.
