[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 495744, member: 927"] I read the letter and I also know about some of the internal plans. I don't view this the way it was portrayed here. UPS has looked at flight schedules as well as air hub closings. The analysis has shown that UPS can reduce 300 pilots. UPS plans on giving the required 90 day notice beginning June 1st. UPS planners have a responsibility to move packages the most efficiently. These changes will unfortunately furlough 300 pilots. The IPA executive board wants to keep all pilots working. They feel they have some expert schedulers and planners at their disposal that can "generate cost savings for the company". I don't know if the IPA oferred this or if UPS did, but according the the IPA memo, the company said that if the IPA can come up with $54M cost savings, the company would consider not having a furlough. Capt Miller said: "You can clearly see the nice package that has been laid on our doorstep by the Company. We can spend time being frustrated, angry, or we can roll-up our sleeves and get to work creating options that will both protect our jobs and our contract. The Executive Board is focusing on the later." The IPA thinks UPS is inaccurate in the amount of savings its new moves will generate. They said they were analyzing that. Assuming UPS is correct in its calculated savings (and from what I know the numbers are accurate), its up to the IPA if they want to look at other options. So I don't see this as UPS "asking the piliots to give back 54M". P-Man [/QUOTE]
