It's still not official, but A/I integration day is coming this fall to a Netjets airplane near you. A bit earlier than I expected (I was thinking more like January/February) but it looks like November should kick off the festivities. A few details still have to be hammered out but the transition process should be complete by the end of '09.

Enjoy!
 
I expect an loa of some sort to be coming out. Its a good day not to be a group leader. ;)
 
They've put us all on the first floor in TEB. :)
 
I go away on vacation for three weeks and you guys give away the F'n store!

Who did this? Damn it I want some names Colonel!
 
We're maxing out the Blackberry minutes and data allotments this week too....
 
I'm a new guy at netjets and I don't fly the 400xp, could you please elaborate, I'm not sure what this all mean to me as a pilot.

Ciao

LOL. Hey Wolfie, wanna search our earlier conversations on this subject and admit you were wrong? You let me have it good, and now, I get to bring all that stuff you said back and laugh.

We're not sure what it means to us, either....:0



Seriously, it means that by the end of next year, all NJI pilots will be members of NJASAP (or at least paying the agency fee), the collective bargaining agreement will cover pilots at both divisions, and everybody will hold a seniority number on an integrated seniority list based on date of hire. Other than that, the final integration agreement is not yet complete, the details of which will make for the most interesting reading...
 
Integration usually means allowing the company for better efficiency (common dispatch etc). In exchange, are there any talks of the pilot group getting something in return (better international override, retirement etc)?

Well I guess we all know your a chick... I forgot all about the past.

But I'm a dude (On Sunday afternoons I grill ribs and watch football... then fart myself to sleep on the couch).

Your new girlfriend must be VERY cool....:beer:
 
It's gonna be fine. Tall fences and options for all. Seniority prevails. Fair deal.

ALPA and APA were NOT influencing factors in this merger deal... well, they WERE examples how how NOT to do a merger.
 
NJI is NOT hiring off the street or is there a cut off date?...
 
Pilot Merge

:confused: I really don't see why anyone from NJA would care what happens at NJI. VERY FEW from NJA will see the Left seat of a G. The merge will only help those fat cat G drivers smile all the way to the bank!:);)

I care because in 30 years very few will remember that NJI and NJA were ever seperate. I may not ever see the left seat of the GIV or the GV, but I will have a good chance to be in the left seat of the G650 or whatever comes after. Think past 20 years and you can see why I care.
 
It's not a "merger" kids, it's a seniority list integration. The collective bargaining agreement will apply to all pilots but there will be differences between the operations and, at least for the next few years, Okatie will continue to operate as a separate entity. NJI isn't pulling up stakes and moving to CMH (and thank your favorite deity for that). As FLYLOW said, it's gonna be fine (and he's right about ALPA and APA too...)
 
:) Hey Gut, your right again, Also I don't plan on giving my seat up for at least 10 yrs. Like Willy said, I'm looking forward to the 650 myself, maybe even that SSBJ. Hang in there Willy 20 yrs go buy fast. :beer:

From what I hear this is a GOOD thing. Some of the people in CMH could screw up a free lunch.

While this is very true, G right seaters will also never see the left seat of a G if they are still FO's when the integration occurs. I'm sure they're not happy about that.

Not quite true - unless RTS goes back on his word.
