Shutting the airline down every four years is not peak leverage.

For Air Canada to lay off pilots, there would need to be a system bid that results in a surplus. Pilots are laid off based on that surplus. They wouldn’t go through the process just to lay off five pilots.

They covered the taxes on the mid December cheque.

UL 777FO to UL 330CA would make sense. You could hold UL 330CA at 10 years seniority and be working around 12 days as a 777FO.

777 Partners is based out of Bermuda

It’s called status pay and it’s not common in NA; but very common in Europe with the legacy carriers.

Vote will hopefully be NO. October's bid will be as if we voted YES and reflect those positions for next summer. Negotiations will take place after bid close for less concessions. November's bid will be delayed until December in hopes of a YES vote after a rectified MOA presented. If passed probably...

DBM’s don’t expire in 12 months nor do the training extensions; they will be locked in our contract. The only thing to expire in 12 months is the Wet Lease which can be extended with ACPA approval. The only other expiry is the Jazz flow program in 2025.

Your first four years are guaranteed 75hrs a month, but you get paid the greater of 75 or hours flown. Ex: if you fly120 credit hours, you get paid for 120hrs.

WJ faces have never been green.

You’re probably thinking about the B737 Cockpit Companion by Bill Bulfer. This is a great book for all variants of the 737.

Air Canada was sitting just over 8B at the end of December in unrestricted liquidity.

I’m sure finding slots over the next few years won’t be too hard!

Step 1 - Go to ERAU and while your there marry a local.
Step 2 - Network and go to FedEx

600 still furloughed and 0 recalled. 194 surplus pilots still on property will be given positions back at the company, pending vote results which closes Monday.

1 month LOA for the Nov block month.

LOA pilots can vote - I did myself and I’m on an LOA

+1. Also have to look at the pay cuts the Cathay and Lufthansa pilots have taken.

Active pilots voted themselves a pay raise while 600 members are out of work and wondering where their next meal will come from. Disgusting.

I’m sure there’re multiple ways you can look at it...

82.5% YES

UA has also received a massive bailout from the US Govt

True, but there will be 194 more pilots on the street that otherwise would've been protected with full pay for 6 months. Might be. Can't keep laying off and also be ready for a quick recovery. There isn't going to be a quick recovery. Even if a vaccine came out today that was 100% effective it woul...

It’s for 6 months - I don’t think RV is going to be doing too much within that period.

Thanks
