Flow Through Is Done!

[Crzipilot]

dunno..saw the PSA chair in the crew room today around noon or so. But it seems that PDT has been more on the ball pushing the flow through than PSA..... Maybe they came to agreement and just PSA Chair proxied his concerns and such????

I supported the idea and process of a complete flow through, though I hope there is some sort of screening process up and down to make this whole thing a little more bearable for both sides...

Congrats guys, good news for you.

What you all really need to be asking is what is the Flow Back? I havent seen a flow thru that was all its cracked up to be, but I have seen them work great in reverse! Just ask the eagle pilots.

Yes, they do work great in reverse! But looking like it might just work out for us at Eagle in the end.

While I'd very much like to believe that it is in fact a done deal (and haven't we been hearing that for several years now), PSA wasn't there today so "all party's" couldn't have signed it. Unless one of them was able to sneak away, our MEC, or merger chair and our negotiating chair were all flying the line and couldn't get released by the company to go.

PSA couldn't get there folks there due to management not allowing the time off, so PDT in turn represented the PSA folks. US Airways at first decided to not show, but after they found out the meeting was gonna go on without them (US WEST/PDT)........ well, they then decided they better show up.

There is flowback also! Not sure on the details, but there is protection for the folks that don't want to flowup and remain at PSA/PDT.

Shhhhh... Don't let GreyGhost know about the flowthru! He left PDT to fly that big shiney 170 for peanuts, and since he left has been on FI bashing the Hell out of the PDT pilots and Comany!!

GreyGhost????? You Like Apples?????

My first question is Wsurf, what the bleep -bleep are you doing up and on FI at 4AM. If you are just starting the day for a trip and took time to come on here, you need to drink more on the overnight. If you are finished drinking and just going to bed at 4AM, you write very clear sentences for a drunk man.

Just bustin your chops man.

Anywho, I have been a vocal proponent of flow thru for a while and have not made any bones about it. I find it amazing that when the threat of hiring in the next 6 months at U comes about the flow gets finished in 1 day. Why were they not able to come to this consenses in the last 3 years so easily.

As I was typing this I got an e-mail from the PSA MEC. He states "official agreement was not reached. However, there was a very productive discussion about the detailed elements that are necessary for a viable flow through program." Additional items in summary from e-mail, "broad consenses about key aspects", "outline to be developed and discussions with U managment"

Apparently MEC was able to teleconfrence in on meeting.

I talked to RO in SYR, he talked to CM. He said nothing was signed but another meeting is scheduled for Sept 26.

Yes!! Everything was signed!!

Now management has to look it over and see how things will be metered. I talked to a few Union Reps and everyone signed off on the deal.

Details will be released soon.

If it was signed then why the sept 26th meeting, as said above?

 

[WSurf]

The unions can sign the deal. But details have to be approved with management.
