Ok.........so the arbitrator has ruled in favor of the AWAC pilot group. Now what? What happens from here? Does the old contract become the defacto one? Or do you work under the existing one until this is completely resolved?

I would very much like some hard info to shove in the faces of some of these ALPA naysayers........................

The system worked...................outstanding!!

edit: I forgot about the 14 day proviso. Still curious to see how/where things are supposed to go.
 
Things should snap back to the original pay rates, and retro checks should be on the way. Anything less than that is not what was ruled on.
 
From AWAC Contract '99

Year 2005

Longevity CA FO
0-1 $63.66 $25.50
1-2 $65.65 $39.39
2-3 $67.65 $40.59
3-4 $69.75 $41.85
4-5 $71.91 $43.14
5-6 $74.13 $44.48
6-7 $76.42 $45.85
7-8 $78.79 $47.27
8-9 $81.22
9-10 $83.74
10-11 $86.32
11-12 $88.99
12-13 $91.75
13-14 $94.58
14-15 $97.51
15-16 $100.44
16-17 $103.45
17-18 $106.60

That's just the CL-65 rates. The Bae-146 (think equivalent to CR9) tops out at $135.65/hr.

Perdiem would go back to $1.70 domestic and $2.00 international.

Actual on duty would go to a MAX of 15 hours (could be as little as 13 hours, depends on when you start your day).

Among other things.

Peace.

Thanks Rekks,

Some other good gets are:

3/1 TAFB up from 4/1 so those 90 hrs trips away from base=30 block hrs

Standups 6 hrs up from 5

Total monthly TAFB 320 down from 380.. Big change here.

This paycut was more than per hour cuts we gave up lots in workrules and retirement.

More than the whole $$ value is the simple fact that our management screwed the employee's and now we have some leverage. This is a good day for all pilots. Lets hope that others can catch on and move fwd. Good Luck Comair we are pullin for ya.

signed.

A happier AWAC pilot

AF,

Best guess, we continue under the old contract for the next 2 weeks at which time the old contract is reinstated, and the retro checks start going out. Just means another 2 weeks of retro!

Best guess in my case is about $60K, and that's conservative, with no perdiem, interest (yea, we are demanding that too!) and doesn't even take into account the old rigs being applied to the flying. Plus more $ into the 401K.

This has the potential to be HUGE! And yes, management can afford it. We have been consistently profitable since AirWis was aquired from UAL years ago.

Peace.

Yea, the boost to morale alone is almost priceless. And it didn't require a Mastercard!

Peace.
