Section 1 is the big unknown right now but I trust Casey and the nc to have kept or improved the language if TA1. I would be ok with that

I trust them too, but you could drive a Mack truck through section one in TA1, and you had better believe they would have. I am optimistic that Casey et al fixed the holes.

You will be required to show for rap. Also, your trip can and mostly likely will be modified and probably assigned post when you could have owned it

Unfortunately, there are more voting members who would rather retain the ability of taking your reserve trip than allowing you an important quality of life benefit. Majority and greed rule at wn

Quote: I feel the same way. The company's platform was no B fund under any circumstance but now we have a B fund in the AIP. I also know from talking with an old school former SWAPA guy the company's platform included PBS but there's no PBS in the AIP. We got a very good economic package and they got codeshare. I trust JW & Co will not be swindled into codesharing with weak language. I'm sure legacy guys will have much to say about that. I cannot put my thoughts about g k on this forum but I understand negotiations are give and take, especially when negotiating in federal mediation.

Here's something to consider: As a percentage of the stated platform the AIP works out as follows:

Pay: 97% (Final pay $280/HR vs $289/HR)
Retirement: 94% (15% B fund vs 16% B fund)
Retro: 79% $53k vs $67k (Platform stated 4/4/5.9 and we got 3/4/4)

The reality is no one gets 100% retro. Recent precident shows Fedex got 84% of full retro and UAL got 68%. My UPS friend says their TA has a $60k signing bonus for Captains paid over 6 months when his full retro far exceeds $100k.
"Full retro" in the platform was based off of raises, that some would argue, were above cpi. I agree that our snap up and, consequently, our retro should have been more. Unfortunately, due to the federal mediation process, saying platform or nothing will only yield Ice or re docketing

Hi.

Just wondering if anyone would be willing to post, with the application of the AIP, what a new hire year one FO would gross per annum? Not concerned about 401k or B Plan numbers, just an annualised gross salary based on a typical monthly minimum guaranteed flying.

Cheers,

Taggert

Per annum is just per year. Aussie slang I guess!
I'm guessing 75-85hrs stick per month would be the average?

Cheers in advance.
