First, the union has moved on the 70 rates. If you look at the update that was e-mailed to you after they finished negotiations, it shows that. We started out at 120 an hr for the 18 year 70 guys and now it is somewhere near 106 an hr. That is a lot of movement on out part. We have even moved down from what we were asking this summer. It was in the ball park of 110 an hr. We as a union have moved. The company as barley budged. I agree with many of the above posts. The company does not have the desire to get this done for one reason. They do not feel that this pilot group that the balls to go on strike. Just ask them. Heck it has been four frickin years. I do think that they are mistaken. I have not flown with one person that is not sick of all of the BS.
It looks like we lost that Frontier flying. Oh well. They cannot use the cost issue anymore. Offering a 50% override for open time pick ups proves that it is not a money issue. If it was they would have hired a long time ago. They are playing dumb. It suits them well, but they know exactly what they are doing. It will not work, but there is malice behind every move they make.
