The Negatives of the new Netjets proposal

Ahhh Ribbit... luv ya man.

A couple notes:

And another way to see it...

4. If 1108 wins, RTS will meet the other specifications required before the deadline and automatically extend the agreement 30 months. 1108 case meets 30 of the 36 single carrier requirments to be considered as such. Now I know that anything can and does happen when a judge/arbitrator gets involved.

Actually, it will be more by that point. Some things we can't talk about.

and...

This is about business. We have made a tentative agreement with management in regards to IRMs. We don't care if it involves NJI or a whole new fleet of 7Xs. SOMETHING must fill the 85% requirement though. Given the choice of a fleet of 7Xs with no NJI pilots to merge, ok... I'll do that. Or take the G4/5 with 3-400 pilots to merge in a way that reflects our date of hire... ok. Fair too. I take a 200 number "hit" personally but I take it knowing it's for the greater good.

Think about the logistics of this.... in order to affect the option, the language says NJA must operate 85% of the IRMs "in the twelve months prior...". My question, and answer is 'how many aircraft does it take?'.... What I'm being told: at least 40 more.

40 more aircraft in 4 years? Anyone listen to the last hangar video where RTS talks about the problems with acquiring the 7X? Can't get them... not available. Nor are extra G-whiz's...

Short answer my froggy friend is that the timeline is defined. It is a done deal; we simply need to go through the steps.

See ya somewhere...

RNO, good point. Something "bad" to you guys might not necessarily appear bad to us. It's all relative I suppose. Bottom line here is they should give us a raise based on the last 2 great years we've had. I wonder what would happen if you guys vote "no" and then we get a raise that surpasses NJ?? Might create some tension over there.

If you wanna make more money than NJ,here at Flex, you might want to sell some of that crack you're smok'n.
