What's interesting is that your Eagle brethren lobbied for the Supp W/Letter 3 provisions to END 2 years ago, which kicked all AA flowbacks out of RJ CA seats into FO seats & pay, then you STILL want the original benefits applied, but only to Eagle pilots, not AA flowbacks. If the Eagle pilots get HIRED by AA, shouldn't the AA flowbacks get CA seats back? Or is it all for YOU and nothing for THEM?
Thought so.

When you guys increase pay and working conditions up from rock bottom, then you can talk.

Just pointing out the facts [edit: delete flamebait]. not defending AA or B-scales at all, but if you guys want to launch flak our way with your lame attempts at justifying Supp W (or Letter 3 or whatever it's called over there), just realize it doesn't make much sense when your pilot group and MEC agreed to signing it in the first place. You sound a lot like the USAir Easties crying after they AGREED to neutral binding arbitration, then didn't like the result.

Flyby... you nailed it as well. Really disappointing to hear some AE pilots talking the way they do, especially since all of my AE friends are nothing like that. But hey, I know we have more than our fair share of bad apples over here at Skynaziland as well. Peace out,

So my friend flying the EMB making 160K a year is at rock bottom? How much does a reserve MD80 captain make or a 777 FO at AA? BTW, since your contract is expired does that mean all the AA guys lose their seniority?

How much do our first year FOs make at AE? Not so high-and-mighty as $160k/yr. Remember, we have just as many FOs as we do CAs. We are a pathetic group of individuals. Raising the bar starts at the bottom.

Yeah, your bud has been here for damn near 20 years or more. Our pay, for us 3 year folks sucks. But that's what I signed up for. Knew what to expect. Except I didn't expect the us vs. them crap. That's the main reason why I'm trying to go else where.
