If they plan on keeping these two fleets separate, then won't they need to keep the blended rate separate? CAL 757 vs UAL 76T?
Right now I'm pretty sure the blended rate for 757/767 includes both CAL and UAL aircraft.
Once they start parking the UAL 757s, those in the 76T should benefit from a higher blended rate since it will have a higher percentage of 767s, but as it stands, those bases will be watered down if they still include all CALs 757s.
Once the UAL 757s start to disappear, the 76T bases will basically become almost 767 only bases won't they?

However, as a reserve pilot, you're paid based on the blended rate since you might not go over your guarantee for the month.
I guess maybe I need some education on the L-UAL 767s. Do you have primarily -400s?
I guess there's no point in arguing this unless the L-UAL 767s pay at the higher 767 rate since the -200s/-300s pay the same rate as the 757-300.
APC doesn't show the fleet mix as separate anymore so anyone know how what the makeup of these individual fleets are?

This is correct. L-CAL pilots have always been paid based on the actual aircraft we fly on a per-leg basis.

Easy, LUAL LEC reps in ORD and SEA. You know, the same councils that wanted to roll all the LCAL pilots in the MEC election and the same group that had continuously supported failed MEC chairman at LUAL in the past.
