Polar Engineers to be Re-instated!!

[KeroseneSnorter]

Conflicting info running around. Looks like it may only be the F/E's for now.

Lots of running around like chickens happening!

Could just mean they'd come back to a "furloughed" status rather than "terminated" in which case they would get 4-6 months pay??? Anyone?

My money is on your answer. I have a couple of small variations, but why bother since the info will be coming out soon.

This particular arbitration was only regarding the wrongful termination of the F/E's. Had nothing to do with the furloughed pilots.

So Polar has no more classics for the F/Es to come back to?

Atlas is still flying 3 seaters..?
Would the Polar F/Es go to the Atlas Classics then?

Just curious because several of the Polar guys got on with us, now they may be going back...Don't blame 'em.

Hope this will force my bosses to look at the pay and compensation package and perhaps up the numbers to keep people around.

I don't think anyone knows whats going to happen. It's in negiotiations at this point. The good news is, management will finally realize they can't just do what they want, ignoring contracts, without paying a price. As a result, they are now talking to the Polar union reps about a fix, be it cash, training, jobs back, and airplane shifts.... noone knows. It can still end up in arbitration, where the arbitrators decides.

U giving me too much credit Merc, I mean Cfire

To answer your question on another board, Not an FE, not @ TDX, and YES left PO before the (so predictable) storm :beer:

Don't let your vendetta blind you though. There are many surprises ahead for both pilot groups, not the most pleasant ones

Cheerios

Furloughfodder;

I believe you are mistaken. The word I have gotten is that Polar ALPA won the Alliance arbitration which effects both the pilots and FEs. The FE wrongful termination arbitration was cancelled due to the arbitrator's ruling on the Alliance arbitration.

I believe the company and the union have ten days to work out a deal.

I stand corrected. Is it now Focus?

As far as a vendetta, I'm only reacting to a vendetta.

 

[big_al]
