1. The cadets today will take the job for $30,00/yr and no bonus like guys did in the past!

2. We are made to believe the company & union then must support companies growth ambitions, and they tie it to flow! Saying no growth no flow!thus we believe growth must happen for flow to continue working. Especially for protected pilots.

Thus the CONUNDRUM we are in. No incentive for company to increase pay or change reserve rules. Win win for Co.

Am I wrong?
To add to this, it also hurts us that we are a segmented pilot group. The last major deal we made, the union even stated they couldn't please everyone, so they focused on getting the protected pilots out the door as fast as possible, while most everyone else took a back seat.

Dont get me wrong, the PP should go, they have been through a lot, however I feel that was the time that we should have really gone for the big pay/qol/flow increases, as the company was in a position to negotiate then.

Our group has lifers that want nothing but money and qol improvements that benefit them. We have middle of the pack pilots that want to just flow and get out so flow is most important and then the newer hires looking at 6-9 years here, valuing flow much less, wanting nothing but pay and reserve improvements. This situation puts management in a very nice spot because we are fragmented on what our priorities are.

At the end of the day, flow guarantees should be everyone but the 200 lifers main priority. If the people interviewing here would just understand that every time they decide to ignore the warnings and come anyone they are directly impacting their own flow/qol, management would finally come back to the table.

If I was a new hire right now, I would assume the flow doesn't exist, because let's be honest, the odds of it surviving 9 years in its current state are slim to none.

I doubt reserve rules will ever change as long as half the new hire pilots have never really experienced it on the 175. Anytime a 175 guy gets involved in a conversation about reserve w/ haggard 145 and CRJ standbys their input is “if you don’t like it, go apply at Brioche Doree, no one forced you to come here.”

I don’t know about all of that, I’m not on the 145 and I want better reserve rules not only for me but for my fellow pilots. .

So the class every week was a rumor.

The first class of the year was just a hold over from what should have been the second December class.

Not sure who said that, the classes were always 7th, 14th and 28th in January.
And yes, there were 2 classes in December.

Pretty sure there was only one in December. Second would have been the 17th and there wasn’t.
