XJET TA Vote Results.....

[Ben Franklin]

Good on ya for that and kudos for not voting in a concessionary contract.

We get CMR pay rates from 10/1/02 - 12/1/04 for our work performed.

Then on 12/1/04 we take a paycut to the contract rate table for all new work performed.

Sincerely,

B. Franklin

Exactly. Then the soft time kicks in. I argue that if I just fly my average line, my W-2 will be SLIGHTLY higher than the same average pilot at Comair for the same year. Time will tell. I could be correct, I could be smoking crack. We will not know for a year.

 

[AviatorTx]

I can't believe only about 800 of us voted 'no'.

Believe it. Would you like some cheese to go with your whine?!

 

[Prop Trash]

Anyone have a link to the new contract?

Look on http://groups.yahoo.com/group/airlinepilotcontracts/. You have to join to see it, but it's free. I saw it in the "files" section.

Just like the turbocharger on my 1979 pinto. The company is "going to work" on your lovely soft time as we type. They will rape and gut your TA and most of my union reps stand by and let them do it. We will be left with shi**y pay tables and 12 days off for everyone. You will probably be at CAL anyways. I won't need to wait a year to tell you that.

Sincerely,

B. Franklin

For all the talk SOME, and I mean SOME of you did on this board, you sure did not "raise the bar" like you said you would. I for one think you did a good job, but where are all the Comair + something people? Where oh where have you gone?

Still here. I voted no, but unfortunately not enough of us did. Yes it is sad but life goes on I guess, just not as good as I had hoped.

voted "NO", still here and wondering why 100 or so didn't even bother to vote.

That's cool, just wondering. Good luck to ya.

I'm still here, too . . . wondering why more of my brethren don't have the dignity and/or balls to stand up for themselves. As for the 'cheese with your whine' comment . . . this is not whining, this is disgust. Is it possible that the AFA has more balls than 'we' do? Man, this makes twice in just over two weeks I've been a part of the correct minority in a vote . . . what're ya thinking, people?!

 

[Lear70]

Is it possible that the AFA has more balls than 'we' do?

I was thinking that, but wasn't going there. Maybe as pilots we just have more to lose, but I've watched it happen at MSA, then XJET, and now with PCL starting Section 6 in 6 short months, I fear we're seeing the writing on the wall and we'll be the 3rd on the list to not live up to the rhetoric.

So much for "100 in 5", but hopefully your company won't mess with the "fuzzy math" as much as many of us believe.

Best of luck,

The key word in your statement is minority. Be a man and get over it already.
