AMR Proposal Highlights

[COpilot]

" That's still better than what US Air or United pays..."

So, it's better to only be pissed upon... that shat upon.

Right?

"Substantiation by an accredited absence management vendor"...
We don't have language like that in our agreement.

It seems like they have not taken the ATP rule into affect. How will the lower-paid regionals be able to attract new FOs who already have an ATP...sounds like it will take a LARGE number of new regional pilots to do all of this flying!

You're right, and they will be called furloughed mainline pilots...

That preferential interview recommendation, who thinks we are in an economy that is hiring loads of mainline pilots?

This is the first wave of the future for mainline pay and work rules. Get it right guys, either take the quality of life and sucky pay or be ready to work your butt off still making sub wages.

That 60% pay for sick ought to be ASAP'd right now, it pressures a pilot to fly sick.

35 day of vacation maximum. Wow, so sad.

 

[atpcliff]

And all of the mainline pilots will need an ATP, also.

Who says there will be more flying? They will park a bunch 50 seat RJ's putting thousand of pilots on the street. Every 2 RJ's they park they put on one 86 seat "super RJ", preferably at a new whip-saw carrier so that everybody starts at year 1 pay.

It may be better to end the company than to let the 88 seater get into the hands of the teenagers...just sayin.

You can bet that JO is licking his chops about another potential code share partner-

 

[Sy-bill]

400 furloughs is about 4% of the pilots. With PBS they will roughly have 18% more pilots than will be needed.

1500+ furloughs is what is on the horizon. Fortunately retirements start back up in another 10 months.

Not near as much as GoJet is....very sad

 

[ALGFLYR]

Uh..Yeah.

That's EXACTLY what I was trying to get across.

( Once again we see just how sharp pilots are when it comes to abstract thought. )

So which airline went into BK and the pilots came out with a pay raise and improved contract provisions?? I'm sure the AA pilots would like to study how they did it...
