US Airways and PSA to furlough

[Grey Ghost]

I can give two examples where your thought (strangely missing any bullsheet about PJ) is dead wrong.

.

Is HG holding out for the flowthrough to PJ?

Can the westies re-petition and vote ALPA back in if that happens ?

Wonder what Stanley and Limp Dick Queer Coeling will pull out of their arse to explain this one.

PSA brothers.....get out and do it now! TK has marching orders to start pulling flying down in an attempt to deal with the clostly 50 seat RJ. Not good.....

Good luck Blustreakers..........Local ALPA Weak + High Oil = TK f..in around with numbers again

Good point. There is a reason wholly owneds don't work.

CFI?

Have some respect. If you dislike our union this much then stop paying your dues and get your name put in the back of our contract.

J for J round two will not happen unless PSA gets more airplanes.

True, kinda...and it will be round 3 or 4...I lost count. PSA, or RPA, to be specific. From the memos and last face to face I was in with a, LCC Asst. CP, (WB-CLT) LCC is not happy with Mesa, so I don't see anything going on there. Their contract is up in '12 (I think) and can't get here fast enough for LCC.

I can't see LCC purchasing/leasing anything to the PWOs right now. But, stranger things have happened.

Also, mainline is now USAPA. Different union, and different rules.

Yes, but, no. The J4J protocols are still in affect through the LOAs. USAPA has to honor them or renegotiate them. If it happens, which I doubt, the main body of the J4J will stay. For know, J4J is dormant, unless they turn the E190s loose to an affiliate. LCC did it with the E170s, but there are scope issues with the E190s that would have to be resolved. I highly doubt USAPA will give up scope.

Last I looked, SkyWest is not a LCC Express affiliate...yet. Did I miss something?

Only the arrogance of some Skywest pilots thinking their company is the odds-on favorite for ANY replacement or growth small jet flying for ANY airline.

Mesa is on the way out, no doubt about it.

However, I don't think the net gain for RAH or Skywest will be anything dramatic.

Delta is trying to dump Mesa and Pinnacle because they don't need the lift, not because they want to replace it.

Very sad about the US Air pilots. Those guys have probably been on the property less than a year, and took huge paycuts to get there in the first place. On the other hand, they're probably in the best place to fly international for a few years (typed) then come back it they really want to take the huge pay cut.

as to this particular situation, who then is the 'odds on favorite'?

For replacing Mesa in the US Airways system?

I'd say "nobody"...but if Dougie gives you USX flying then good for ya...

Might be RPA. They just moved to the C Terminal in CLT and Mesa moved to the E Terminal. Picking up more Mesa weekend flights and some former PSA weekend stuff in July. Some might be seasonal flying.
