Last year, Atlas started a class of 14 pilots in January...
They went to Miami having been assigned the aircraft type...8 to the 747, and 6 to the 767. That is specifically not allowed in the CBA...meaning that after class seniority is determined, new hires can bid on aircraft type.
Since they were harmed (starting 2nd year, there is a pay differential), the Union filed a Grievance which was recently settled, and 4 of the 6 harmed 767 pilots have decided to join the new hire 747 class.
This is a one-time arrangement...the normal 3-year seat/equipment lock that is in our current CBA still stands for everyone else, and the first of the 767 locks are due to be lifted this summer, so if there are vacancies at that time, we shall see some movement...
Clear as mud?...I thought so!!
