1. "Up or out" policy, which states that whenever someone Jr to you upgrades in your base, you have a certain amount of time to do so as well. This forces EVERY F/O to upgrade when it is time, which creates a long upgrade (as opposed to senior F/Os passing it up and CA upgrades go way junior, a la CAL.) As far as I know, we are the only airline to do this.
Very interesting. There must be some reason, other than tradition, for this policy. Does it save on training costs? Does APA support it? Seems like the price would be a lot of unhappy pilots, unable to make their own choices on QOL.
Instead of seeking "pay raises" APA should replace the words pay raises with "pay restoration" adjusted for CPI.
Same thing, different verbage...
They will eventually understand when their flights have some kind of emergency and Sully types just ain't up there in the cockpit anymore because the job ain't worth it..... then it'll hit home real hard.
What? I though AA only hires the highest time, most experienced pilots. Have they ever hired anyone without PIC turbine?
