Why wouldn't you refrence the past?
Knowing where you have been keeps you from traveling in a circle.
It's hard to compare the past when the present and past weren't exactly the same. Scope wasn't a big issue back then, BKs weren't as common, and age 65 wasn't enacted. You just can't compare the two. Sorry, times have changed, and adapting to current problems should be our focus, not focusing on past pay rates. Was there a Skyteam Alliance back then? That there has more affect on our future pilot growth than almost any issue. DL pilots didn't even know what a code share was in 1994.
