PSA(unbelievable!!)

AWAC's VP of Flight Ops has said the company has not been offered 900 flying by US Airways when asked if such flying had been declined.

Even more interesting. Though I heard it was offered but they wanted too much money. Though that was just a rumor. Maybe you guys are next....lol

Its entirely possible that our management was approached but chose to lie to the pilot group...wouldn't be the first time that's happened. Regardless, on the company discussion board we were told AWAC had not been approached by US management.

The company did ask ALPA to negotiate a payrate for the 900...and was told to use the 146 scale currently in the contract.

I honestly don't think crew costs (PSA's offer vs. AWAC's 146 rate) will be the make-or-break detail of additional 900s coming to Express. I personally think Parker wants control and those airplanes are coming to PSA...they're just trying to get them for as little as possible.

Its going out to a pilot vote...

When? And what? The company's "offer" to fly them for nothing more than CRJ200 pay?
