Fins,~~~^~~~ said:So 40 ASA Captains end up in the right seat for 10 years to "make room" for pilots who decided to leave ASA? How is that fair?
You and I are on the same side (I think) but please, don't think that any part of this equation is about what is "fair".
I'm not familair with the displacement provisions of the current ASA contract, so I don't know how your ATR pilots will be reassigned.
However, you do have a seniority section and a filling of vacancies section in your contract. Unless your MEC or your pilot group agrees to J4J, there is no way that anyone can force Delta pilots onto to your "list" ahead of ASA pilots. They can put them on the bottom of your list but they cannot give them "super seniority" without your consent. Your contract is "amendable" but (short of bankruptcy) the status quo remains in place.
Please tell me that your MEC is NOT considering some foolish agreement like the one at PDT/PSA/ALG/CHQ/TSA/MES. Your posts are leading me to suspect that you might be. Tell me that I'm wrong, please.
