And before all the reserve guys spend all their money, by this time next year your 84 + hours each month of flying the crap trips should give you some more to put in your bank account. Oh yeah, don't forget you will be stuck there a couple more years because of the EFFICIENCIES we traded on. Manning formula tightened up and don't need nearly as many line holders flying their 84 plus lines.

2015 or now we can discuss DPA a little more seriously

Frankly, with a 62% passage, DPA better be DOA.

Welp, I'm looking forward to 1200 more bucks gross pay next month. Here's to moving forward and making the best of this.

It is increasingly clear that you do not understand the structure of the new reserve system. Please stop with the fear grenades.

Btw, DPA was dead to begin with.

My reserve line just went from 70 hours at $188.96 to 80 hours at $196.52. A $2,494.40 difference. Not a bad start.

I walked onto an airbus earlier and the window was partially delaminated. They ship changed to a maddog because they knew those hosses would get the job done. Maddog don't give a....


So here I sit until 8ish tonight! I'll go and sit at the ALPA desk since no one is there.

And the max allowed jumbo RJs under this TA jumps from 255 to 325 and we no longer have to grow to 767+ airframes before 76 seaters are added.

sorry, not jumping for joy over a pay raise.
