Glad to hear they're all about taking up the fight against the company's efforts to reduce the number of reserves required. Makes me wonder what other possible ways we could work to stop the reduction in staffing requirements. Anyone?

If you want to increasing staffing you could campaign for our co-workers to stop flying 90+ hours every month. I remember my 7er LCA showing me his 130+ hours of credit he was acquiring every month. I know a few ALPA P2P guys, & while they were making calls to survey the pilot group there were multiple people who griped that they couldn't fly to FAR max every month!!!
I say we go back to the bow wave program. We truly are our own worst enemy.
