The HKG based freighter FO issue is covered in Crew Direct. It spells out the 5 options that CoS99 piots have to choose from.

Mayday

Green Pages are A SCALE that's why we never see them otherwise you would have a riot (I wish).

Thanks. Makes more sense now, I really am getting screwed over.

Am i still going to get paid the bypass pay I am owed from the current situation, or is it going to be just wiped off the map?

Super B scalers have their own Green pages, it covers those that joined from 1st April 93 to 1st Apr 95. ( ie they too are B Scalers with things like a Travel Fund and slightly improved medical coverage )

If any Super B goes onto Cos08 they will lose their Green pages after Apr 2010 and therefore take another 8% pay cut.

In my guess there could be approx 100 guys that fit this catagory.

Even clearer, thanks.

How bout we all agree right here to say NO to all right now and stick together. One out were all out! lets make it life or death and show the company what the real threat is!

Because there's only about 10 of us here.

Where is the two "extra" pay points supposedly on the FO pay scale? The number of pay points in COS08 is the same as in COS99!

Also, there's no mention of the "longevity" points mentionned in the previous message. As this been dropped?

:confused:

Thank you
 

Just like to say thanks to you all who worked on days off and helped the company out over the last 24 months or so. This new contract is especially for you!! Enjoy it!! I will be enjoying my base until 65!!
Some people just never learn.

Is this a f'ing joke or what?!?! There's so much that's not specifically addressed and so many shady areas to be explained, and they expect us to make such a career changing decision in a matter of 10 days!!?? Even with all the relevent info it's a ridiculously short amount of time, let alone like this!!

For starters, I don't have access to the current copy of Cos.08! How in the f;kkk am I supposed to decide if I want to go on it or not??!! Are we expected to sign a contract without reading it in it's "current" entirety for ourselves first??!! THE COMPANY has sole responsibility to provide ALL information regarding this little surprise they've flung on us. They want us to send individual emails regarding each of the many many unexplained shady areas! And some of those will be answered privately! Great, more shadyness from cx! Nothing is ever open and honest. There's always a sh!t load of shady stuff going on behind the curtain. Some things never change. It's obvious that it's THEM who want to sell this package, we don't want to buy. So instead of presenting everything is a clear and unquestionable manner, they instead put out a brief couple of letters which leave much to be desired for those who will have to make a big decision based on that little info. And on top of it they put in a good dose of threats in there just for good measure.

WTFO ??!!:ugh:

Read the GMA update! In there there is a link to ALL the COS08 available for download for all bases and HKG.:ok:

There's a link in the GMA letter to all COS08 stuff - it's on the Flight Crew page under personnel.

Have to say what a bland uninformative letter from the GMA; as expected though!!

Will be interesting to see the AOA's perspective on this?

Yep, I found it, thanks!! I was reading a printed copy of the letter so the link wasn't so obvious.
