Incentivize? really? We are a seniority based system. There is no "incentive" unless you consider forfeiting your quality of life for money an incentive. Frankly, if that is where we want to be, that is pretty pathetic.
We push throttles. Management buys airplanes. Pay me for flying whatever it is they buy. period.
