Or for the delivery flights line pilots should be doing. It's probably for the chief pilots and the instructors picking up new airplanes. Now it's on their iPad.

What instructor has gone to pick up a plane? Unless you are referring to one specific check airmen who used to be CP/DO? But you did say instructors so you must know something.

This from the latest Alpa email about Air Transat

"After reviewing the latest global agreement presented by the company, our local union leadership and negotiators have unanimously approved sending it out to our membership for a ratification vote," said Capt. Patrice Roy, chairman of the Air Transat Master Executive Council. "This tentative agreement represents a step in the right direction towards bringing pilot wages into line with their peers."

That entire MEC and MC should be fired! They TA'd a "step in the right direction" aka not pairity or maybe a "path to pairity". If our MEC and NC do something that stupid I'll be first in line to start cleaning house after we vote it down. Hopefully the Air Transat pilots vote theirs down too.

Yes, it was a generalization, the CPs, former DO and the gang, it was an assumption as to why it was added to the iPads to make it easier for the delivery crews. Instructors was meant as the current and former management instructor group, not the line instructors.

'Tis the beauty of an anonymous forum. We can make generalizations, accusations and assumptions and there's no accountability.

Can we actually verify that the meeting was completely worthless and we now have an 8 week wait or is this complete BS?
