I have a question for the guys in the property: I have been trying to update my times for months now, but every time I do that, the website says "You have already applied to this position" does it mean that it has already taken my changes?

Is there an email address that i can forward my cover letter and resume to?

Thanks..

What extra work is that? driving to MIA?
Its a canned lesson plan, teaching procedures to ATP's.
Beside the 5hr / period min (that's 10 hrs for a double), and the override, you NEVER have a 30/7 issue.
Admittedly not as good a deal as when all that OT was at 150%, but still not bad.

Since im no really into any of that stuff, I can care less what they pay instructors, (grnd, frasca, sim, OE or line checks), more power to them that like to do that, as far as I'm concern let the credit 300 or more hrs, good for them.

I just would like the credit monthly lines to be more of a 85-90 avrg, rather than this scummy 72-76 avrg. And get the 150% back during transition, (oh boy, I hope I'm not stirring any stew with that)
Here's to all the twatwaffles that picked up CA OT in FLL next weekend while the company was in the negatives on coverage. You guys don't play poker do ya?
^^^^^^^ and they wonder and complain about not getting 150%..... I wonder why?
giving up %150 was a bone head rookie move....

The argument could be made both ways. I don't believe you were here then, but the (failed) strategy was quoted to be to gain 150% back when the company needed help in other areas (likely the transition language). The pilot group could've also admittedly helped this along by not picking up time at 100%. Think about it: less credit to fly, paid for 100% of your sick time (used to not be the case) and everyone got a sick bank bump from the rollover of the (useless) secondary bank. It really looked like a sure bet at the time (I admit that I felt this was how the chips would fall).

For reasons unknown, it never happened. It's been two years. Some have never gotten over it, others have just learned to play by the new rules.

FWIW it was explained to me by MM that if they didnt give up the 150% they would have lost everything else.

The 109 chairman said at the road shows that the 150% money was still in there, it was just redistributed throughout the entire pay scale. That sounded more like ALPA National talk to me, but it was the line at the time.

Right and the daily min pay is still there. It's just redistributed over your duty day.

And international override is still there. It's just redistributed over the domestic flying.
