How many got hired and quit at Pinnacolaba in the past week?

[ChickenSled]

So you were paying dues 9 months after your first day of class? That's an error- did you ever call anyone about it?

Why would I care till now. 1.95% of $1700 is not worth a fight. BUT, when you multiply by "maybe" 2500 pilots my math says ALPA owes us maybe $250,000?

But, and I want to hear you say it, Colgan is inferior to Mesaba.

Why would I say that? I don't think it. I think we should all have a fair integration. I like them a hell of a lot more than Pinnacle at this point. I think Colgan pilots were treated like crap and at least they aren't going around spouting off about how they deserve this or that because they are growing. I don't think I have heard from a single Colgan pilot on this issue. I am also almost certain I will have a Colgan pilot hired after me above me on the list. Not sure how that couldn't happen.

Management - What former Mesaba flight ops managers are going to be at PCL other than this DV guy?

Union leaders - Its unlikely that Mesaba will retain any reps in the combined MEC except for the MSP Council. 2 out of 14 of the voting reps is not exactly a strong influence.

Training centers - Who cares what building training is being done in (both training centers will remain in full swing by the way)? Answer this.....why was PCLs training program and procedures chosen for the CRJ fleet if Mesaba's was superior?

Chief Pilots - All of the Domicile Chief Pilots for the new PCL will be from the old PCL.

Contracts - The JCBA barely even resembles the old Mesaba contract. Why do you guys keep claiming that we are all working under your old contract?

I don't know where you are getting this info...but I can tell you that at least the points regarding union representation and chief pilots are incorrect...This isn't speculation...I know for a fact that at least one domicile chief will be from xj...

So, how did Pinnacle lose a "rock solid" 200 to another company? I thought they were all locked in until 2017? That sure paints a different picture to the "snapshot" that should be used for SLI. While it certainly wasn't the pilots fault, how many would Delta have taken if there wasn't this merger? That's six less captain slots available to all of us now. By the way, ASA should be offering full seniority integration for 10 pilots based on how we screwed Express back in the day, right?

 

[GRAAB HIRBOUBI]

Actually they lost 3 CRJ200's

 

[bri5150]

Yeah, but two came to us, which is going right back to them. I didn't count those.

list? We don't need no stinking list.................

Stay tuned to next season's "regional airline SLI" . Nice cliffhanger Bloch.

Everyone at Pinnacle paid em, check your pay stubs if you have them.

Oh you said it. Hope you keep your CA seat, but sources say you don't actually have that.

If I already said it, why did you want me to say it? And you know Mr. Bloch and my seniority number? At least Flyer tries to get under our skin. You just make random remarks that make no sense.

Give it a little while, it will make sense later.

Mine came out 12 months after class date. Insult to injury while on 1st year pay.

Yep. I will sue ALPA if XJ pulls their coup.

The interesting question is what happens if the SLI comes out past 4 Jun?

Here is an idea everyone. Go drink a beer or 5 and settle the f#@ down!

Just so I'm clear... You dues were taken out prematurely, but you didn't think it was a big deal at the time. Because it didn't amount to much money. Now years later, your going to sue if you don't get a refund, because you lost 6 weeks or so of seniority, which was never considered your date of hire.
