Sunvox,
We get paid for the airplane we fly. All soft time is paid at blended rate. We've been getting paid this way already because we're already on the system that the L-UAL pilots will migrate to later this year. Pay for the plane actually flown has been going on far longer than this contract and well prior to the merger announcement.
Just saying that we didn't get something implemented earlier than the L-UAL pilots. It's just something we've already had that you will transition to later. I don't think it's right personally, as they could do it manually each month for your group if they wanted to.
