Default D-Day: 9E, XJ, 9L SLI

Well Mr. Bloch, whatcha got?? DOH, relative, ratio, a mix, is there going to be fences?? Are we even going to see a SLI, or just some methodology?? We hope you had a great weekend golfing and we are anxiously awaiting your return.

No matter what happens today, we Pinnacle, Mesaba and Colgan pilots will be on one single seniority list. How we respond to what happens in the next day or two will set the benchmark of who we are as pilot group. I hope we all get screwed equally.

Good luck to all involved!!

I predict an email from the union that says they have received the decision, but must take a few weeks to go over it and prepare for any questions from the pilot groups. Par for the course.

Par for what course?

I can understand maybe holding it for a day or two to brief the MECs and check for accuracy but baring any huge mistakes in the decision, can't imagine it being held for weeks

Some have said this merger itself is a huge mistake, does that count?

For the 9E MEC course. In our email it stated that if only the method was received then it would require a few meetings to get the list right. A few meetings to me, in my experiences, means weeks.

It better not be just the method after how long it has taken. On a side note how do I become an arbitrator? Sounds like a pretty sweet gig!

If it gets held for weeks Ill laugh my a** off... Some news was passing through the system was that 9E already has commited to a 900 base at JFK starting in July. I thought this was just smoke, but if you look at the DL schld starting in July there is A LOT of 900 flying in JFK.

Yeah it's true. The mesaba 900 pilots need to get ready to change equipment or move to jfk because thats where the planes are being sent. The other 900 bases will be closing and a jfk 900 base will be opening.
