The replacements will consist of The Palm, The Farruuuuz, or Coloma......... so the question remains- who is worse??? Them or the current batch?

Three men who will stand up for the pilot group. Yes, I'd take them over the group who is more concerned with not creating any ripples in the water. They know what's going on, know the company, the union, the pilot group, and the contract.
 
Everybody is pissed over the reserve rules, and rightfully so. Our contract is woefully short on reserve protections, but like 80% of the pilot group, I too thought it was acceptable at the time to sign off on it and accept the TA. I regret that now. However, it is in black and white, and the company is merely doing what I put my "yes" vote on.

Reserve WILL get better-it has to, or a new TA won't pass. The MEC knows this. I think that a recall at THIS time is premature, and half cocked. Let them put a TA out there and lets see where this thing falls. If no reserve QOL improvements are made at that time, THEN throw them to the curb for a new batch that will negotiate from scratch. Changing boats "mid stream" doesn't seem wise or prudent to me. Let the proposed TA speak of their intentions for QOL? Don't buy too much stock in the actions of an emotional hothead and a compulsive liarwith absolutely no integrity. Even if this isn't a personal vendetta, it just smells bad from those who started this.
 
Maybe some extra incentive for the company to move foward on a TA, if the current guys are really in pocket. Any one know how long the vote would take?

Have you lost your mind? That's like putting the tea party in charge of the country. Absolutely not. They dont know jack about whats going on.

While it is true we can not accurately speculate about what the JNC is negotiating, I would suggest that everyone both on reserve now and all FO's that plan on being captain some day vote based upon the reserve section.

I guarantee you that after 3+ years on reserve you will wish you had held their feet to the fire now instead of continuing to hear them give excuses why they couldn't do any better.

Our union (crj side) completely sucks when it comes to standing up for our junior pilots.

You have that right. By the way, how did you vote on the last contract?

As for the standing up for the 'JR' pilot, what examples can you provide for us?

Or a radical, left-wing, socialist, revolutionary nut job that knows jack about economics and want everything to be fair!
