Also as I said I’m not in a huge rush since I’m in a pretty great place right now, just want to eventually get back to 121 flying.

Hopeful New Hires beware: No Health Insurance for the first 90 Days.

Don’t think this was addressed in the latest round of negotiations. At least I haven’t seen it mentioned.

Thanks for that heads up, but we’re currently on my wife’s anyway.

What’s reserve like as a FLL FO? Are you called in much to fly or sit Airport ready reserve?

Currently weighing up my options upgrading to CA at Envoy moving to MIA or changing to Spirit. Plan is to move to FLL at the end of the year.

No ready reserve here...as of this contract

Check back Friday to see if that stands

Just out of curiosity, why on earth would you leave Envoy especially when you are going to upgrade and have a guarantee flow into A/A to come here to Spirit.

WAG; they’re probably building a TA website, with calculators, FAQs, and such....

Winner winner, chicken dinner.

Supposed to be a ton of info available Friday so that we can get information from sources other than Astral....who has “already seen the TA”

They are waiting until they have created educational materials for the website (spin job). They don't want us to see the real deal until they can spin it the way they want. God forbid we come to our own conclusions by reading the actual language without any help from the "educational pieces."

My god man, do yourself a favor and lighten up. If you're not smart enough to turn text you read into your own opinion and read between the lines that your problem. I think no matter how they try to spin the details most of the group in going to be looking for what's terrible in this TA and not just at what they stand to gain.

I am smart enough to see through their spin, but I fear most on here are not. They won't even realize it is spin.

Oh Sour, you’re so clever.

You don’t expect the NC to promote this TA? They accepted it and the MEC passed it, so they want it. Clearly. This isn’t a surprise to anyone.

Every pilot can now read and decide for themselves. Some on here think they are smarter than the average Spirit pilot and they can distinguish between spin and reality; fantastic for them that they are so smart while the rest of us are so dumb.

These same people probably have the “best words” like our president.

No spin required.

Um.... what? Are you trying to say the average pilot is too stupid to figure this out? If you actually think that there is no way to tell facts from spin i really hope you don't get a vote. Language is language, it contains facts in total and not just bullet points. Damn your post was stupid

Guys this is why I took the time to create 31 new thread so we can talk about each section and give our opinions based on the facts from the ta

Read my post again...I was pointing out fly20201 and his opinion that he is "smart enough" to read through the spin but the majority of us are too dumb.

See, he is smart, we are all dumb. :rolleyes:
