great second post

When does the voting open and close for your TA? As I read about 9e TA online and then talked to the union reps and actually read the TA, I realized there is a lot of “fake news” on FB and APC. Get educated and vote for yourself. Good luck to all my regional brethren in raising this industry!

I wonder how much is in the coffers for republic to give to the pilot group.

I'm sure the NC committee was shown the books and profit analysis. With the the majors pulling the strings, new flying contracts would have to be renegotiated probably in order too get higher than endeavor rates. Right now.. the big three agreeing to anymore would be less likely than..... having Jesus as SLF. Once flying gets impacted is the only way they will react... this summer is going to be nuts..

Im not at rah and hope the best for you kids as this impacts us all..

I know my company, PDT, was offered 20 dollar an hour increases across the board and our NC turned it right down.

Can anyone send me the current Republic contract or is it available somewhere? Thanks.

I would like to see this also. Thanks

The costing data and total cost hasn’t been officially released. Who knows if they will ever release it! Unofficially it’s about 75-90 million over the 3 years.

The issue isn’t the pay rates. They could have gotten this pushed through, if they improved other areas. Also it didn’t help them saying we would get 9E rates, when they didn’t even come close. Every FO I’ve flown with in the last six months expected 9E at least. That’s because the company and some in the union were spreading those rumors.

I seriously doubt this gets more then 30%, but they’re laying on the scare tactics, so who knows. By they I mean the union. The company hasn’t said a word.

Please don’t hate on new hires for getting sign on bonuses. I get it why everyone is mad but I’ve been treated by both instructors and check Airmen now on OE who were pretty spiteful about it towards me. If you were in the same situation you would also take the opportunity.

With that being said a lot of people are saying we get 17,500 or 20,000 bonuses. Not true. Some of us are still at 10,000 or 15,000. My bonus was 10,000 1,500 if which was paid during our pit full training checks. After IOE I will get probably $5000-$6000 with taxes. Bonuses aren’t all rainbows and sunshine.

Dang, you and I actually agree on something! :p All of us regionals need to stick together and keep raising the bar. We're pulling for you Republic!

Don’t think anyone hates on new hires getting bonuses, but we will not allow the company to have unlimited bonuses. That’s the only leverage regional pilots have, so to give that up would be stupid! If they removed that and added some QOL issues, then this TA would probably pass. Of course they will not remove that, because every other regional allows unlimited bonuses or portable longevity. Both are a bad idea and weaken bargaining positions for regionals.


BTW first year pay with bonus is probably more than some of our captains use to make.
