Remember, no one outside the negotiating committee has seen the TA'd sections of the new contract. And with three sections still open, things could change. Then there's the arbitration possibility. That being said, what I've heard is the trip rig will run a pilot over guarantee if the company keeps you out the full 17 days. My understanding is guarantee will remain about the same so that it will cause the company to think twice about keeping a pilot out 17 days just to fill dates on a schedule.

I noticed that you now have to submit a pre-application questionnaire as well as a resume. Problem is when I download the questionnaire and open it it is illegible (I'm using a Mac and opening with preview). Anybody have a working copy or aware of this issue?
Also, when sending this in are you sending it as a separate attachment or combined with your resume?

Any idea if increasing the monthly guarantee for newhires while in training or for the rest of the first year might increase in the next contract? Isn't it like 50 hrs a month right now?
Also, how often is everybody updating? I've been sending a package in quarterly but am thinking about monthly now.
Thanks-
KC

Current pay is poor due to a bancrupcy contract and 5 yrs out of negotiations which has made for a bad morale, surprise! However, new TA'd sections increase guarantee from 62-83 hrs and 22% pay raises across the 5 yr contract. a 3rd yr guy is @ six figures, also going to 15 yr pay scale topping $149 Fo's/205 Ca's FWIW. Most important above all else is record profits $5.35 per share for 2010, i think pax haulers are .50 if they are lucky. Atlas is levered to global growth and insulated against the falling dollar which further increase profits. Lots of growth rumors of large AC's purchases after new joint contract with Polar is announced Q1 11. Only been here 3 months and every place we travel has non-stop construction cranes out my hotel window. Airlines are consolidating, global freight is booming. this job isn't for everyone and if you want routine stay away. BTW, i've yet to work 17 days had layovers in HNL, SYD, HKG of course there are africa ones as well. Don't know if this is it for me but so far so good, ps first year pay is livable/training in MIA! Hope this helps

I can still login but nothing is there anymore. I haven't heard any news yet but I will let it be.If it is great but if is not I will keep trying. I know the right job is out there all is requiered is patience.

Also, I wouldn't believe everything written here about the new contract as of yet. Think someone already posted that there are still some open items and nothing has been put out as official.
