You are right too Scambo, we gave it away, and now we are seeing the fruits of the concession. Ten plus years of stagnation, and unless we get all of Section 1 right, whether it be in a extension, modification, or a completed traditional section 6, this has to be fixed, period.
A sunset clause does little if anything for a lot of us on the list. Sure, I am senior enough that I won't be flying those airplanes, but a sunset clause on those airplanes won't take effect until I am at or near retirement. If that is sufficient for you then fine, I couldn't care less, but as has been pointed out these things affect more than just the lower half of the list.
And I still fail to see how this will garner any meaningful growth for the mainline pilots. This announcement just reinforces that this is a fantasy.
