Canvassing the A330 and B787 the rest of this week.
So I would not bet your house on it just yet Troo Believer....
So the absolute majority of the crew from these fleets are a NO. Ok that’s fair... although I don’t believe that’s quite accurate. Speaking to several SO’s from both 380 and 747 they’re really just not sure either... but in any case.
What’s the end game? Is it straight 330 rate and conditions to carry over onto the 350, leave all the night credits and AFDP’s as they are? What about 747 rate? What about 380 rate?
Removal of new hire SO rate?
Removal of 4 year training freeze?
Removal of pre allocated training?
Should the 350 just be a completely seperate type to replace the 747 in the rank structure to allow continued bidding between fleets for Captains and Fo’s?
Do we just roll over EBA 9 into EBA 10 and take 3% and say **** your 350?
What would make the Majority vote yes?
I’m just curious as to how far off the mark we are in their mind?
Personally I’d love to see them leave everything as is and see the 350 become the new 747... but I’m not so delusional as to believe we will ever see those terms be renewed for a new aircraft. At best we can hope to equal or slightly surpass 787 pay.
Correct me if my logic is flawed.
