Isn't this flying for Midwest to replace the flying that was done by guys that are now on the street?

 

I'm pretty sure the memo answered all the questions about what RAH management will do about the E190 pay.

 

Yes it is. On mainline airplanes.

 

Disgusting. Y'all need to get your act together as Pilots and not bid a SINGLE pilot in MKE. Show management you've got some collective nuts.

 

They'll happily bid, not one backfill. They're all scabs in my eyes.

So much for "we're in negotiations for payrates". D'oh.

 

The scary thing is the precedent this sets for MANAGEMENT everywhere, soon airlines will be nothing more than a name with multiple "staffing"companies providing pilots that will fly any size airplane for any pay. What happened to the Juan Tripps of the world?............having pride in a product, so sad. This country is falling apart and corporate America is leading the way. I am not saying RAH pilots can't provide a safe flight, but MIDWEST airlines, (like every other airline) should employ MIDWEST employees, makes for better morale, which = happier employee which = Better product etc.

so frustrating, CAL put bids out on XJT stations for ground support, so they wanted to save a buck, we got American Eagle, the competition...............how hard do you think they work to get us out on a 20 minute turn if they have one of their own 20 ft away, unreal.............


sorry for the psychobabble

 

At 8 bucks an hour, about as hard as they work to get their own flight out on time.... not very.

 

Remember it's only a scab if they cross a picket line or fly struck work. Feel free to strike anytime.

 

They can't, but I assume they love seeing their 717 flying done by FO's that can't make more than $37/hr.

 

That's a pretty messed up thing to say, especially since the Midwest guys on the street are powerless with families and kids. Shows how much you know or care to know. Don't worry major and regional pilots will use their imagination to label what RAH will be doing.
