PSA 70 Seat Rates and LOA 7

[BTDII]

For those of you that were interested, here is LOA 7 which contains some work rule changes and 70 seat RJ rates.

They're letting us vote this time so lets here some opinions (keep it nice). I personally am planing on voting no at this point, but I still have yet to go to the, soon to be announced, road shows.

Letter of Agreement # 7 Regional Jet Aircraft

Letter of Agreement
between
PSA AIRLINES, INC.
and
THE AIR LINE PILOTS
in the service of
PSA AIRLINES, INC.
as represented by
THE AIR LINE PILOTS ASSOCIATION

This Letter of Agreement is made and entered into in accordance with the provisions of Title II of the Railway Labor Act, as amended, by and between PSA Airlines, Inc. (the “Company”) and the pilots in the service of PSA Airlines, Inc. as represented by the Air Line Pilots Association, International (the “Association”).

WHEREAS the Company currently operates small jet aircraft; and

WHEREAS the Company and ALPA wish to facilitate additional operation of small jet aircraft by the Company; and

WHEREAS, the parties wish to establish rates of pay for the CRJ 700’s and other relevant modifications to the basic collective bargaining agreement; and

NOW, THEREFORE, the Company and the Association agree as follows:

1. Section 3, Compensation is hereby amended:

3.B.4 All pilots will be paid at a blended rate, based on the proportion of CRJ-200 and CRJ-701 aircraft in the fleet. The rate will be reset quarterly based on the average aircraft months associated with previously delivered aircraft and projected deliveries or retirements of aircraft for each calendar quarter. The effective date of the reset rate will be the first day of the first pay period of the first calendar month of the calendar quarter.

For example, if one CRJ-701 aircraft is projected to be delivered in each month of the next calendar quarter, the rate would be adjusted at the beginning of the quarter to include the equivalent impact of two CRJ-701 aircraft for the entire quarter, producing the same economic result as having the rate adjusted to include the impact of one additional aircraft in each of the three months of the calendar quarter.

YOU HAVE BALLS for posting what YOU did...

I am willing to wager that when all is said and done, at the end of the month/year, then you make SIGNIFICANTLY less than PSA. Find someone with the same seat/longevity and compare W2s before you open your trap....

[skeezer]

Yeager pull your head out of your arse and check the numbers. We are only deficient to MESA in the 2-3 year FO on the CRJ-200.

Also, as SmackYour Pappy corectly stated when the paychecks arrive we make more than MESA.

Peace!

i hope you guys can see these rates are pretty bad. there really is no excuse for this one, since you all get to vote and not the infamous MEC vote. if you guys do vote for this, then it really sends a message that your willing to fly for anything just to get larger airplanes. just my opinion, but do what you guys want, it your company.

 

[skeezer]

my opinion, but do what you guys want, it your company.

Exactly.

The rates are not the lowest (MESA still is), and our company is still facing liquidation. Unfortunately I don't think now is the time to make a stand for industry leading rates. Yeah they suck, but they are still better than MESA .

[328dude]

The 70 rates are the exact same as Eagle for their CRJ-700. The Eagle rates is what Mid Atlantic is using for the EMB-170.

Higher rates then Mid Atlantic? Doughtful

 

[cl65200]

"Yeah they suck, but they are still better than MESA "


That might be correct.

Just curious, what is PSA's monthly guarantee? ( Mesa has a 75.83 hrs monthly guarantee )

 

[328dude]

72 reserve 75 line holder.

What do you guys get for DH and CX pay?
