Has anyone heard anything about Piedmont taking over PWM?

If CWA is ever the authorized representative for Piedmont agnets watch out for stations going express. A deal will be madeI'd be interested in confirmation on this, too.
If this conversion to "PI" is true, then I feel especially sad for all of them.
So based on who is currently handling the ramp, PWM isn't losing Mainline to EN at all. Mainline has already been lost back in 2005 with 20+ other stations. No big news here, just one contract vendor switching to another. I am a bit curious as to how long the CWA can hang onto the inside work in some of these smaller stations. I know that they have Mainline employees is some stations that have NO Mainline flights at all. Is there some type of a time limit in the CBA that protects this work until a given date, or is it for the full length of the agreement?Has anyone heard anything about Piedmont taking over PWM?

You are so right mainline express classification is alive and well in CWA contract.MLE still exists as a classification for stations. While the payscales (minus the USD 0.25/hr "customer contact premium") and vacation benefits are now the same, there are still some differences pertaining to furlough benefits. The MLE stations that have all express flights still handle 70/86 seat aircraft. "Pure express" stations are limited (with some exceptions) to 50 seaters and below.
