Now if they squeal that they can't afford to run an airline with 400/hr top pilot pay, thats OK, just give us the full SWA scope, SWA pay (plus more proportionately for larger planes), significant work rule improvement, a massive (40%+) vacation daily credit bump, reform the insane use it or lose it sick time debacle and some other basic improvements and we're good to go.

Remember that the NMB LOVES existing parity with a profitable peer.
