It will suck more, if pilots choose some flashy pay raise over strong section one changes. If we do, do that, we have no one to blame but ourselves when the JV's, CPA's and code shares keep a coming.
All true ACL. But don't try to sell me that we are adding Captain positions when the reverse is true. The memos from crew resources are misleading in that respect, and some on here can't see the forest for the trees.
