I agree with you on that last sentence. But don't you think it's a slippery slope if the MEC adopts the mentality that they are the smartest guys in the room and that they know better than the pilots they represent? Then you get guys like Slowplay who won't advocate a restorative type pay increase because they view the company and industry financials a certain way and supposedly "know better." More top down stuff. Not good.
