Massive pot hole indeed.
Chimbu, the pay rate on the B1900 notwithstanding, anyone can see that the JPC has brokered a deal that, forever more, locks J* pilots out of further pay rises for different types.
I just find this amazing that anyone would vote for it. But they did, at a 50% discount to the going rate?!!?
J* gets the A380? The management line WILL be; "You signed off on the variation... no pay rise!!"
J* gets the B777? "you signed off on the variation... no pay rise!!"
J* gets ANY larger aircraft in the future?? "you signed off on the variation... no pay rise!!!"
Or do you guys think that AJ or GD will willingly give you more money when they have an binding contract that says they don't have to?
When Rick H has gone to his management job, and the rest of you are falling asleep at 4.00am with ZERO prospect of advancing your situation barring CPI increases, don't say you weren't warned.
