So words like "industry leading" "concessionary" and "backstabbing" mean nothing to you? Thanks for proving my point. You sure do know a lot more then me! :rolleyes:

It's no wonder why people talk shlt about PDT and PSA pilots. Now go to sleep you child, it's past your bedtime.

As for billyho, w tf are you even talking about? Start making some sense and then get back to me.

I'm done with you idiots for tonight. Good luck to the AWAC guys on getting a good TA. They're a RESPECTED pilot group who deserves to be treated as such.

Are you still crying? Where's your pacifier?

In the next couple years our leverage will never be higher. Why agree to a mediocre long term deal now? I'm not speaking of air whiskey specifically just airline pilot in general. Delta pilots could smell a better deal if they hold out so why can't regional pilots?

I agree that the TA came to a conclusion quickly, but in hindsight we have been working on one for over 5 years. Why sign a mediocre deal now? Well its not a concessionary contract, it only ADDS value and qol for pilots. I don't see the harm in that.

The looming pilot shortage has no effect for delta now, but it has a real effect on regionals today. Having talked to the interviewers at AWAC the bottom of the barrel has been scraped. The next couple years, either regionals will take a much reduced schedule (see republic) or something in Congress has got to give. But I doubt it.

I don't know how this thread turned into a pi$$ing match between PDT and AWAC pilots... I know from experience that the AWAC pilot group is an awesome group of people. Congrats on the TA! I sincerely hope it is everything you have been fighting for.

Yes I agree! It's easy for someone to twist a statement. AWAC hopefully now will have a fix cost nailed down along with improving an already good contract.

Cheers!

Because you're so deluded that you think lowering the bar even further is justifiable if it will get YOU to a major just a little bit quicker.

This industry is already a joke, and losers like you who care about nothing but airplanes don't see the value in trying to raise the standards. Just because airlines are about cost doesn't mean it's your job to subsidize the feed with your already pathetic paycheck.

I've done very well at Piedmont.

Seriously, this is an AWAC TA thread... If its isn't "hey guys, good luck" or "hey guys, go F yourself" or AWAC guys asking/answering questions, then it shouldn't really be here...

Agreed. Was hoping to see some highlights of new TA, but it appears to be the same as many other threads 😒

Congratulations on getting the TA done AWAC. Hope it contains the compensation and QOL improvements you need.

I can't believe some of you are so clueless to think that the simple passage of time makes past mistakes ok and forgivable.

Spoke with someone on the mec, said expect bullet points middle of this month and if all is well to vote next month.

Finally, some useful information. So many different threads for different airlines, yet always I see the same 3 people arguing about the same stuff over and over.
