Jet avg about 13 days off/month. 12 is the avg on the dash. Schedules seem to be getting better on the jet and worse on the dash.

Who cares?! The people who missed out on a bigger bonus because your MEC left money on the table. They may have negotiated some improvements, but if another group got more then it begs the question what was possible had you guys WORKED TOGETHER with the other MECs.

In the end it's on PSA pilots to affect the appropriate changes in their leadership. The rest of us in this AAG WO family would be grateful if that happened.

Look, your MEC is saying one thing, and ours is saying something different. Who is throwing who under the bus you think?

Both Envoy and PDT's MECs are saying it. Ours actually put it in our update letter to the pilots. Your MEC jumped too soon on the deal, it's not rumor in my mind anymore, it's fact and it's really not that surprising considering their past behavior.

psa jumped so fast that they had posted their details at the same time as envoy pilots got the email from our VP of possible pay changes. In other words they agreed to what was put in front of them, which in turn ties the other mec hands from negotiating since psa took the original first offer.

Can anyone with good info chime in?

Sorry to hear that. (Try airline apps or emailing recruiting directly)
Sorry flying a turboprop is beneath you.

Call heather Bowers directly, she is excellent about returning calls immediately. Her number is found on the website. The first new hire class to go on 145 is soon. That being said they are going to need fos and captains on both frames. Enjoy the dash if you get it. It's not your typical tprop.

Pretty sure Envoy posted first, even though I don't see why it matters. Some simple research on this forum alone will show you that.
