Well, think of it as a protest thread.

I really just want this thread to focus on scope, pay, the TA, work rules, regional jets, 717s, hiring, college football, flows, current contract questions, SWA, section 4, section 3, section 23, Alaska Airlines, and NRT 5th freedom rights.

But nothing else.




P.S. Can we start combining stuff yet?

How's about another reason for a Republic carve out...

Republic Airways CEO talks Bombardier jet plans - Yahoo! Finance

Would be nice to just have those here...keep the 717's

Grass,
We can carve out an exemption for RAH if they need it.

Side letters work best for that. Best not get those dumb, angry, small picture pilots involved anyway. Union knows best....all the time every time.

Also, is contract negotiations supposed to be cost neutral, a mere legal exercise to extend the employee-employer relationship? Because as far as i can see in this TA, every little bit of improvements are coming from somewhere in our current book. Is this how its supposed to be? (Sarcastic mode off)
