if I remember correctly eastern was once one of the top companies in america to work for.... before lorenzo of course; and I’m not sure but twa probably was a pretty good place as well?

i’ve had several older pilots tell me: “pay can come and go but don’t give up your work rules!” (they are hard if not difficult to get back)

do i think the contract is perfect, NO but show me a place that has a perfect contract...
Oh, and one more thing, El Shiftero, Mr Eastway likes this hobby flying contract now, but what about those of us that are left at year eight of this contract? I sure hope we grow into the relevance that disallows the nmb from authorizing a strike, but the trade off is a decade long contract. If we make it that long.
