Obviously this is a big issue concerning all
SJ (Small Jet) carriers as the Majors see it.
The only time this has ever come to issue is
in the history of ALPA is because the SJ's seem
to be making money were the big boy's never had.
It used to based on maket domination. And still is.
The advance of technology and passenger comfort
has gone un noticed except for EMB and there
new design.
Boeing missed the boat, just like UAL has always
misses the boat. Simply meaning that UAL has never
been innovative in any business decision.
In the history of UAL I would like one person to explain
to me how United/Management has ever come up with
something that is industry leading and would make not
only make the customer happy, but there employee group.
They have succeeded with honor's in segregating both
groups to date. For christ's sake, the flight crew's have
to stay at different hotels (Pilots & FA's); that's has
to cost a ridiculous amount of money that is unnecessary.
And does for a fact. But I guess the Bankruptcy Judge
overlooked this one too.
As for the Flow Thru/Jet 4 Jobs issue.
In reality, pause and really think about this one for a
minute.
It makes absoulty no sense at all... Why ?
Simple, did this person apply to the company you work for
to begin with and was hired. If not; apply now and perhaps
you'll be given the opportunity of a interview and start at
the bottom of the seniority list like everyone else. In both
equipment and pay scale.
This whole flow thing started with Continental, it was the
only way to entice pilots to go somewhere for cheap wages
in the hope of cheating there dreams away. While making
them pay for training just like Comair ended up doing.
I would truely like to see the numbers on the group of
pilots that met there expectations, but include the
number of hired pilots that DID NOT, that had the same
ambition and qualifications. I'll bet you, there are no
statistic's on this. I guarantee it...
And now United want's in on this, nothing personal to
the pilots I know and don't no at United. But this just smells
like the largest COW PIE. Next to being at the A$$ of a cow
splatter bomb that has the runs.
It is just nasty...
