This EFB implementation is a boon for management as we will more than pay for it in the extra days we will be flying and not sitting in class. I couldn't care less if I continue to carry Jepps and a flight case.
The efficiency the company is gaining alone is worth a hell of a lot more than 10 hours. Couple that with the money saved in hotels, per-diem and the company is making out like a bandit if this passes.

Absolutely.... NO.

Sorry, I went over it quickly while on the phone. I assumed the days would be on days working and trips removed.......

I'm assuming if we had a 12day off line they would have to adjust to get us back up to 12 days off?.

No vote here. I made 27 hrs for last recurrent. Why would I want to do it for 10 hrs pay on my days off? No thanks.

Glad I'm not the only one. Absolute no for me. This is a concession.

No. This training is on our own time. It doesn't even count as duty.

I think we have to look some other benefits other than a few hours of pay. Think about quality time and working conditions...Think that you can do your recurrent while sitting in Livonia for 22 hrs. But whatever I get your point to...

They must think we are stupid. Great preview of things to come from our negotiating committee.
