Trans States "Bridge Agreement"

[nwa_contrails]

The MEC voted not to send it to the pilot group for a vote, so it's essentially dead, I think.

 

[MINIME]

I say, persuade your MEC to ask for self help while you still have an airline to strike. Not doing so will only allow Hulas to figure out a way to shut TSA down while maintaining GJ. You may still have some leverage because of the credit crunch.

I think Hulas fears a Trans States strike, because his creditors may not take that too lightly. Thus, financing his little GJ project may become way too unpredictable.

Looking from the outside, you really don't have anything to lose. He will try and put the fear of God in you. He's not quite ready to shut down TSA just yet. I believe you can still get a good outcome with a legitimate strike threat, ie..released for self help. Good luck to you all. I have buddies that are still there.

another play in the playbook thats for all the traffic on the webboards on the bridge agreement memo. nice! at least your getting their attention.

you guys need to come together and do a little something to get their attention-- and if it doesnt cost them money- it just falls on deaf ears.

The press release was just confirming an order. They have already ordered them, Bombardier simply announced who they were going to go to. This could be a management scare-tactic to release the name of the company at this point in time to make the pilot group think they got their financing straight.

Bingo.

As a former waterskier I am interested in knowing what is happening with the connection flying in STL? Is all of it going away?

 

[nwa_contrails]

Yep. In May it'll be all gone.

Former TS

The letter can be translated thus:

"We are committed to running an airline so lousy that we can only compete on price. Won't you do your part and help us in that quest by accepting a lousy contract? In 2 years we'll have a fresh crisis we can fall back on. Remember- it's your exorbitant pay that stands between us being the shining star TSA can be. "
