Don't know what you mean here. We do get a min pay per day. 6:00.

Explain to me why I can leave on a Sunday and come back Mon/Tues night and be paid 9:00. I want 6hr if my trip touches the 0130-0130 block. Thats a real min pay per day.

Actually, you get a min of 3:00 into MEM and a min of 3:00 out of MEM, but I know what you meant!

4. Showpay for reserves reverting back to the last contract (should apply to RLG AND leveling.
5. Increase in Per diem (a nickel is a JOKE!!!)
6. Increase in Uniform allowance (same for over 15 years)
7. Increase in new-hire pay ($2000 the same for over 15 years)
8. Fix substitution

It's going to be a BIG list.

Absolutely #3,5,6,7

And to piggy-back #3...how about jumpseat protection for ANC and LAX bases, not just Memphis.

10 ideas just off the top of my head(in no particular order):

1) trip-rig 3.5:1
2) 25 yr retirement with no penalty(any age).
3) Scope clause that might hold up in court, including all off shore flying.
4) Scheduling. No Day/Night, No same duty D/H. Much more here...
5) Remain on duty during hub turns for pay purposes.
6) Increase "B" fund.
7) Lump sum retirement option.
8) VTO's built by seniorty
9) Pay for trips missed for recurrent.
10) A standard corporate ex-pat package for FDA's.
