Absolutely, and my point is that we are no different then Comair, ACA, ASA, Skywest. We need to stand up and fight for what is ours next time around, and everyone in the industry that bashes us for this contract now have no legs to stand on. We will achieve our contract in 2007, and Mesa will become the place to be!

My point has nothing to do with the rates in general; I hope that fact is apparent.

Good I hope Ca Mark is right.

If the pilots get a much improved contract, then JO will just start another airline with <50% stake in it, where the current union rules aren't obligated to be followed, and transfer all the a/c to that new certificate.

You heard it here first.

Flame bait tossing. If you worked for us you'd know that can't happen. I pity you uneducated flaimbaters...:smash:

What an idiot

Uh, that post was from years ago, and is from a CLOSED website(mesalounge) that no-one (except former moderators?) has access to.

Very strange to be popping up here and now.

WHY DID YOU POST THIS RJDC?

RJDC posted this back in Jan 26, 2006.

It was "Uncle Buncle" who just bought this thread back to life by posting today.

Just look at the post dates, and you will see...

I would also point out that that quote is pretty starry eyed, regardless where it came from. The contract flight will be a several year slog.

Here's a taste of what our flight attendants claim to be company proposal for their "has to be cost neutral" contract (I have no independent confirmation of these proposals):

• Reduce sick leave accrual to ONE hour per bid period!! (13 hrs sick time per year, or roughly 1/2 week total time per year by our bid rules)
• 
  
• Take away catastrophic coverage

• Take away hotels for TDY (voluntary or involuntary, no difference)

• Give company ability to assign you out of one airport in a domicile and back into a different airport (i.e. out of IAD, back into BWI)

• No transfers between code-shares without meeting vague "Company qualifications"…

• Company wants ability to put things in your file without your signature acknowledging that you have seen it…

I sincerely doubt they'll have any better for the pilots when the time comes.
