Go for it. The procedure is in the Constitution & By-Laws. Good luck. Oh, and if you need help with the math, ... oh, never mind.

Oh good, then in discovery they can view records of when he notified the Comany of his intent to retire as well as those formal requests to fly while on a unpaid leave. 😳

Just curious.
Dezi, the EA, went right to Delta management, but that is OK with many of these same folks. What is his new title again?

This is all interesting.

Does the FEDEX DB plan have allow a lump sum?

Some have said yes, another no. What is the truth?

There is no lump sum option but deferring the DB plan will increase the monthly benefit, pretty significantly I believe.

Maybe the DL guys so upset by this should hire the Moak Group to represent them. Moak isn’t flying the line at Delta and never will again so he should have plenty time to rep them for the right price of course.

I didn’t say the local reps get “rich”.
I said they are highly compensated. They aren’t leaving money on the table. That being said, the reps at Purple spend more time on the line than the reps at any other ALPA airline I’ve worked for and I’ve worked for 4 ALPA airlines.

I just perused your benefits book. Looks like after hitting 62, deferring is the smart play, both in terms of benefit increase and taxes, if you have the means to do that. With the ALPA salary, I’d assume so.

BTW, you FEDEX guys have a nice benefit package. Better than us at United.

Just ask Lee Moak.

That is not entirely accurate. Local Reps are volunteers. The only compensation they get is trip removal pay to attend MEC meetings or other MEC sanctioned events & training. They do not get anything for their work at the LEC level. They get a small stipend to cover expenses associated with running their LEC.
