I received a proposed settlement notice today due to the fact that I was once employed by ASA. Looks like RJDC and ALPA are planning to settle for $600,000 (total number not per pilot)!
Law firm gets $225,000. Administrative costs of up to $30,000 and the balance to be distributed to ASA and Comair pilots of record. Figuring a conservative number of 4000 pilots since 2001 that gives each pilot somewhere around $75!
Also a lot of mumbo jumbo about a requirement that ALPA form a "Scope Subcommittee" that gets all the boys together before a scope negotiation and talks about common goals.
I remember the big ideals of RJDC in 2002. Looks like they are cutting their losses and getting the lawyers paid up.
