Wow if this doesn't indicate how pathetic it is to fight over RJ table scraps, I don't know what does...

Pathetic, perhaps. Morally right, who knows. But there's no denying that what you dismiss as "table scraps" certainly could represent the camel getting its nose under the tent as far as Gojets establishing itself as a significant DCI carrier, and it certainly isn't "scraps" to those who may lose their entire livelihoods just so DL can save a few bucks. If this rumor is true, you can't blame management for trying to play hardball.

lol, fighting....nobody here is doing any fighting for flying, just doing some cheerleading for our respective companies hoping they win some growth to improve our pay/qol

Dual qual is something that is going to have to be voted on, I don't think this gets gifted to the company in a simple MOU, it's going to have to be negotiated in the next contract. Good luck getting that done in the next month or two so that we could start training up the 200 crews.

If you want it voted on then you need to tell your LEC and MEC officers that yourself.

I was responding to a post regarding the company magically getting dual qual. I have no desire to give them dual qual, more work equals more pay.

More work?? Hahaha.. Right.

Limitations, procedures, OM updates, etc. I didn't say it was hard work, I simply said more work. When I have to be responsible for more knowledge and apply that knowledge in a checkride, it's more work. Not a lot, but it's more. Easy enough for you?

OM revisions? What a stretch... Deflate your ego a notch there, screech.. If any airplane is more work, it'd be the other way around.
 
I'm willing to do more work as long as it includes more pay. That's the American dream after all, work harder, get paid more. In addition to common category flying, add in 150% pay for over 90hrs block
 
Make it 125% for over 85hrs and stretch out longevity pay increases to 30 years. Oh and a B fund. Everyone wins. We get more money for being productive. Company saves money with common use reserves. And our mainline partners gain huge flexibility that will support base stability. The bonus to dual qual is that it removes one more hurdle to One List with Skywest. After seeing these nonstop shuffles, that should be in everyones mind.

I don't care how little of a stretch it is, if I have to carry a thicker OM and know another 17 limitations including weights, gear speeds or wiper speeds, it's more work. More work equals more pay, at least in my world it does. And if I have to be responsible for more knowledge in a checkride, I expect to get paid for it.

Want me to fly them? Pay me for it. It's really that simple.

Gee, Buzz Aldrin,those OM revisions and extra rote memorization limitations must be sooo exhausting..


You're talking about once a year "work"... As opposed to 6,7,8 legs a day where each one is worth .9 hours of credit. I totally disagree.
