PAY BANDS - JCBA - JP tried to improve LCAL SLI position at the expense of many pilots pay.
FENCES - SLI - LUAL asked for 747 Fence and JP said 'me too' for the 787.
Two totally different things. The UALALPA side understood the final SLI would be the result of the ALPA merger policy and JP refused to accept it. CALALPA's JP was wrong!

If we are really going to endorse pay banding the lets go single aisle and dual aisle. Considering the 767-3 has 5 less seats than the 787-8, it should be banded with dual aisle airplanes. Narrow body and wide body.

Tell me why, then does the 747 at 875k pounds pay the same as a 787 at 550k pounds. Yet the 320 pays more than the 319 with a weight differential of less than 8k pounds. Pay banding as it stands in this contract was gamesmanship to influence the sli. It failed and we are all worse for it. I still voted yes so I am as much to blame as...

That's basically what CAL had prior to the merger. UAL had the 777 and 747 banded together at the merger. Plenty of gamesmanship on both sides that brought us to where we are now. I don't believe the CAL side was innocent, nor given the facts, do I believe UAL was innocent. You and AA want to believe the fairy tale LUALALPA was just looking out for all of us, go ahead. Time to move on.
Unfortunately it will literally be years before the damage done is made moot for many pilots on both sides.

Enough said - go ask your person in the know the purpose of the new ALPA merger policy. You'd be surprised to find it was designed to prevent the situation we find ourselves. Better yet, don't believe me or your person in the know, but take the time to look for a copy of that merger policy.

Plus we weren't flying it so we didn't care. Pay banding it helped us get better 787 rates for sure.
Its all over now so who really cares. Let's just move on please.
