When has SWAPA asked for mid-term contract improvements?
If memory serves, early 2000. They came to a mutual agreement with many improvements for the pilots. THAT'S what I mean by a good relationship with management. Not the totally one-sided relationship we have now.

Yes. See above.

I look forward to an unemotional, fact based response.
In my opinion, it does. When you lose half, then the people who took it offer to "give" you back a few percentage points, I actually view it as a professional insult. Every day we do our jobs for emergency rates for a highly profitable company, management professionally insults me.
I realize you probably consider my opinions to be emotional. But you shouldn't overlook the facts I've stated also. You frequently do that - especially when the facts show you to be wrong.
