lmao, don't count on it. it'll cost aa to much $$ for all that bumping, plus the operational time for turns. even though there's no 12.5, it wont matter. that's pretty much what all the line guys are thinking out there too. but i would hope that's not the case for us

I believe that if enough members of the TWU retire, that the monies the union has deemed available from the company to push the retiring out the door, should be available for a $12,500 move for those who need it.

Of course a position like this is now almost impossible as the potential offer to the company has been made. It would seem that those who are retiring have their pension, something the younger employees will not have.

NO ONE put a GUN to your head to accept a union job that came with Union rules   !!!!

I hope that those union rules apply when the company does not want CHURN for those who are being affected. The term sheet has already dump the $12500.

you're right. are the OH guys fooling themselves to believe that amt's are part of AA's master plan for OH or what??  The topic should read "Reapplying to Tulsa" because, maybe, Lufthansa Technik will hand you an application on your way out.

The Timco's of this world have won! Time to close up shop and move on!!

Anything is possible but I don't think all these expensive consulting firms, the ones actually running the compAAny, would advise any of their client airlines to outsource all of their maintenance.  Wouldn't be prudent.
