Jesse who asked you what you are willing to give up, a regular pilot or ALPA?

Tailor the answer to asks.

If ALPA, just say you're willing to give up ALPA. If it was a old pilot say you're willing to give up Age 65 and go back to age 60. If the pilot is mid age, say youre willing to give up a pension. If the pilot is junior... I've got to come up with something.

I guess the question is why should the 149 seat MD88 and 160 seat MD90 pay less than the A320 and A319 and 737-700 and 737-800? Better yet, why do you have to give up same pay or MD90 pay all of the time?

The answer is obvious, whoever asks that knows itd be a huge pay increase cost and they'd rather the money to be spent elsewhere or on other folks.

So only 88/90 pilots need to give up something, why is that?
