Could our NC be more apathetic towards how slow the company is moving.

Why am I not surprised by this?!? Thanks for calling him out...more of that should be happening.

Was it just me, or did anyone else get the impression from the call that PBS is coming as a requisite to industry standard compensation??

No, but enjoy transition while you can.

No you didn't get that impression or no it was not just me?? And, I am! Had 6 removed last month for 29/7, hoping for at least 3 next month depending on the lines....

Yes, I got that impression too. If that's part of a CBA, those pay rates better blow me away.

PBS was mentioned over 20 times in this call. It's coming.

I got this impression very much so. PBS can be tailored differently for each company. As long as the pilot group has input, I don't think it's a bad thing. I liked what I heard today...

I don't think it's a given that it's coming. What I think is a given is that the company is done paying pilots to sit at home. And I don't blame them. Pay me industry standard and I'll bid by days off over transition.
