Blame the railway labor act.

Never mind. Beat me too it.

So if it interrupts normal hiring then isn't Aerocrew and Spirit being involved in "pay to play"?

I think it's in everybody's best interest to keep things legal. There are plenty of options within those bounds that are not being utilized. One of which was alluded to in today's fastread.

We have to somehow get pilots to care enough and rally around the cause in real meaningful ways.

At this point I have zero faith in the NC and zero faith in the company. Our only hope is the mediator and the RLA process

Care to explain what in depth knowledge you have that the NC is getting rolled? Please do tell all of us what you think you would do in their position since you seem to have information the rest of us don't.

or lack there of.
I also don't believe there is a soul that could do it any better. Theyre just outmatched by a labor crushing management. Getting rolled since early focused negotiations.

Since we are doing out of base PUB events how about Fargo? Lots of unity building to be done there.

If people would stop picking up open time, the problem would solve itself. Unity is the barrier.
Wonder what it will take for this group to finally say enough is enough.

Mgmt will only have the power to suggest, beg, etc. Eventually the mediator will get tired of their games. It's just going to take a while longer. As a previous poster said, barring shareholder involvement, I don't think we'll get a contract without being released.
