Seeing as the last one wasn't out until the 14th...I don't think they go along with that first Monday for the contract.

F'ing Scumbags. We've been getting stonewalled at the negotiating table for almost 2 years....and these morons are pulling this crap. This place is a complete joke. The Piedmont Pilots will get the contract that they deserve....a 3% paycut and 8 days off a month.

Not ALL piedmont Capt's can legally fly right seat. Picking up prm fo open time and forcing somebody into the right seat is an issue for the airline and pdtalpa to clear up because it IS NOT RIGHT. Also on the eff'd up scale would be RSV capt's picking up premium FO time... putting themselves below 10 off per month.

The last one actually came out on schedule, on 3/7, which was the first Monday of the month. 3/14 was the date of the final second round award, which fits with the bid schedule in the contract.

Just trying to move up, so's I can get some god d@mn weekends off and actually enjoy my life rather than loathe myself for still working here . . .

On a positive note I've successfully avoided 2-3 jr. mans in the last week!

Kosher per Star Alliance? Did you pull that out of your butt?

Only captains that upgraded in the Dash 8 can be assigned to fly right seat. It's in the contract from what I remember.
