What a difference a "<" makes . . .
From the Mesa contract:
Soverytired said:Take a closer look at your contract, anything over 76 seats is based on aircraft weight of 86k lbs or more for jet aircraft, in other words Yes there is a payscale for the E-195
From the Mesa contract:
> 76 Seats < = 86k lbs Jet Aircraft
(then the pay rates for this range follow)
(then the pay rates for this range follow)
There is no contractual language for aircraft > 86k. E-195 has a max gross t/o weight of 107,563lb (111,972lb for LR version). Ergo, no pay rates on the property for these planes at MAG.
Language for a new rate will need to be negotiated if it comes on the property. Jet Blue year 1 rate for the E190 is only $71 per hour . . . and tops out at 89 for year 12. I doubt very much the company will be paying much more than Jet Blue ("industry standard"). . . so if I had to guess, it will probably be in the CRJ900 +10% range.
