I almost made $25,000 at Mesaba my first year with that amazing Saab rate. Then they furloughed me.

Not true in regards to the SLI. The SLI can come at anytime, but it is not effective until the JCBA is signed.


Nothing to do with your post.. but the E190 thing is standard 9E rumor idiocy.

A CRJ700 is at the hangar in mem. A CRJ900 is at the hanger in MEM. NWA gave up scope allowing these...

TPA base. E170's are coming.

All while I was there 4 years ago... If it involves a larger size airplane than what is on property or something that seems too good to be true, its probably not true.

Nope, per process and protocol agreements the process of Sli beyond each group verifying their own lists doesn't start until a TA. The 3 MEC's won't have current official seniority list exchanges until after a TA is voted IN by all 3 MEC's. Work towards the sli will be ongoing during membership ratification but a failure at ratification stops merger committee work. The sli is what the company wants and what we keep pulled back until we get a contract.

Put another way, if it is bad news, expect it. If it is good news, don't believe it until it shows up on your check stub.

I totally agree man! I miss the build up lines.

Whoever gives up the scope or flying for pinnacolaba to fly anything bigger than what we are flying today need to have their heads examined. Hopefully this is just more bogus, worthless sim instructor b.s. cause if an ALPA carrier actually lets something like this happen, I may just stop paying dues.

In the new email received by our MEC, it seems they are finally admitting that the Nov 15 deadline was a "bit" optimistic. Welcome the Pinnacle Airlines Mesaba Crews...."Simply The Best"...I was reading the last quarterly report from Corp...they seem ready to go ahead and move on without SLI. Thoughts???

They can't move on into sli prior to JCBA.

Get angry or face reality. After blended rates would be agreed upon the company will push dual qual, it's telegraphed. Not gunna do it, wouldn't be prudent.

MEC's know this and it's not going to happen.
