Section 1 of NWA scope

[i fly boxes]

Can someone please repost this information so we can see where the violation is that NWA Alpa is talking about? Thanks

Real easy, an Affiliate could fly the CRJ-900, but an owned subsiduary has to have NWA pilots fly them, ie NWA Cargo

All existing XJ pilots are going to become FOs. All the 900s and SAABs are going to have NWA mainline guys as captains. There is no scope violation.

Bring it on!

Sorry, I think that is funny.

I wonder how NWA is going to explain this one?

 

[ImbracableCrunk]

Mesaba hasn't been sold yet, right?

 

[i fly boxes]

You know, i am just going to throw this one out there. A couple days before our chief pilot was fired he said that Nwa was going to buy mesaba, We were going to buy colgan and that Mesaba was going to operate the 900 with 90 seats and we were going to operate it with 76 seats. I thought he was on crack because i thought the cap on scope was 76 seats and therefore mesaba could not operate them. So far everything else he has said has come true

If your going to make a prediction at lease make one that doesn't make you sound like a retard....NWA mainline captains of Saabs??????

I think it was a joke Ridge...he said "sorry, i thought this was funny"...

Any ideas of how long before the NWALPA grievance against the CRJ-900s will be heard?

It was filed as an expidited grievance....

Also FWIW, while just semantics, it's not against the CRJ-900's, or XJ pilots, but against the NWA implementation of XJ as a owned subsidiary and failing to honor certain flow/job protection measure iaw with the NWA pilots agreement.

Thanks for the clarification, Fly4hire. It does make more sense now. Good luck to all of us in the Red Tail Dysfunctional Family.

How come I see compass and mesaba becoming one in the very near future

 

[CubanSmoker]

Good luck to us all. I am so sick of this crap...

This is correct and NWA is trying to get out of the compass contract in favor of the Mesaba contract.

 

[xjhawk]

that makes sence.....yes it does

 

[XJ-spartacus]

If history is any quide, NWA management has never had any trouble manipulating it's pilots.

Quick, Get out of the way! I think I am going to Scope!

Has anyone cared to look into the Scope with NWA? Particularlly the section that talks about whole owned subsidiaries and what aircraft they can fly? I think you might find a slight paradox / A$$ raping in progress. That is unless they pull some seats and put in a piano bar.

Good luck guys. I hope they cuddle when they're finished.
