30 E-175 for Mesa

[rene]

Creditors committee?

you did not ask for 1113 because you had no chance with the crediitors committee thats why you ask for a paycut directly to the mec and they told you to go pounf sand

i know very well what i am talking about.

now settle the contract you have been negotiating for 3 years and move on

make sure you dont make the same mistakes you did in the past

What you do not understand is the role of the creditors committee. They were pushing very very hard for an 1113? Just ask those who were there.

Ancient history

management screw ups and lawsuits with the fiasco in hawaii almost put mesa out of business . not the pilots

Lawsuits is Hawaii were six years ago. Light years in the regional airline biz. Mesa is a much different company today. N

How is that relevant - it does not even have PNCL in the comparison. Not particularly impressive

Pinnacle = Endeavor

 

[Ops check good]

Rene, I need to hand it to ya, you were correct all along that Mesa was going to get 175's. Just remember that United is the puppet master and that should worry all involved. Not owning (the lease of) your A/C is a bad thing.

I think it might have something to do with seniority. Mesa pilots earn real dollars, not scale dollars. I am not certain but I was told there were 130 pilots in 2013 who will earn more than $120,000.

Hard to believe even if you include per diem...
If you multiply your top captain rate by a 1000 hours a year max, still don't get close to "more than $120,000".

most of the senior captains do IOE at a 20% override, any junior available assignments are paid at 200% above guarantee, any illegal reassignments are paid at 200% above guarantee, 100% cancellation pay, line guarantee, Scheduled or actual......its not hard to get to that 120,000 a year flying the 900.
mesa has also been offering 300% pay for incentive flying too.

Not trying to make this a "my paycheck is bigger than yours" argument, but I've been breaking that mark for years, without doing OE/training, and not really killing myself on extra flying. And that's flying the 200 (all we have at AWAC).

You should be making a lot more on a 700 or 900.

Peace.

I agree, rome wasn't built overnight either. Mesa is in negotiations and we plan on getting a pay raise via rates this time. Although Endeavor (pinnacle and PSA) are making that quite tough to do. Time will tell, hopefully when push comes to shove, mesa pilots have some balls (like eagle) and do whats right for the industry.

You can only expect them to do what is right for themselves and their families. For the moment at least, lets just pause and enjoy the moment. Celebrate the success for what it is in this brutally competitive industry. Hats off to the Mesa pilots for their dedication and persevere over a long period. Well done.

it was never on the table and the creditors committee never went after the labor goup since the pay was below industry ........remember who was the co chair on the creditors committee? it was ALPA



stop making up s----

settle the contract and move on

Actions speak louder than words do... If you mean what you are saying at the above statement and since you are on the table the settle the contract which you drag your feet on the the last 3 years
