Also, a member of the CAL-MEC issued an ultimatum – never the best approach to doing business ...
Smart money goes with Wendy on this one.

Good on JP....I would bet most (if not ALL) CAL pilots support him on this subject by standing firm on behalf of HIS group pilot in protecting mainline flying under OUR present/standing CBA.
'Nuff said.

Howdy bumped,
Again, I looking for the specific language. The CAL pilots are making some threats without backing it up with specifics. That isn't sitting well with me.
Does everyone realize that CAL has been doing this thru "codeshare" long before this IAH issue came up. I pulled up two examples on the CAL website.
Example 1: FAT to IAH. Using codeshare, the first leg could be on a Mesa CRJ900 (USAirways Express)
Example 2: MFR to IAH. Using codeshare, the first leg is on a United Express 700 (Skywest)
They have been doing this for a long time. Is it the cities of IAH, CLE, and EWR that make the difference?
CAL has been selling tickets on CRJ 700s and 900s for quite some time now....

4. Complementary Carriers Operating Aircraft Smaller than Eighty (80) Seats.

a. Does not operate such Complementary Carrier Flying to or from a
Company Hub; (CLE, EWR, IAH and GUM as defined in our CBA)
b. Is not an Affiliate of another Complementary Carrier;
c. Does not operate any flights under the designator code of another
Complementary Carrier; and
d. Does not operate any flights under a Revenue/Profit Sharing
Agreement with another Complementary Carrier.
5. Company Hub Flights.
The Company will not permit Complementary Carrier Flying between
Company Hubs or to or from a Company Hub (except for Hub to Hub Flights).

Here, I believe, are the relevant paragraphs of our scope section:

In addition, when the XJET transaction goes thru, XJET will no longer fall under 4A as Atlantic Southeast operates aircraft certificated for more than 80 seats.
What other "carriers" are there besides "Complementary Carriers"? What does United fall under in the CAL scope section as you are putting the CAL code on their airplanes?
It also appears that the Mesa 90 seat flying operates outside of this section too.
