I'm not saying a completely bias system only on merit. But maybe some incentive for on time performance or passenger satisfaction surveys, etc. That is something you can't kiss your way around. Now again it would have to be looked after to avoid problems with rampers, bad wx effecting passenger opinions, atc delays, etc. I would just like to bring up the discussion...to see what, if anything, pilots could receive merit for. And think of merit as something a pilot does to go above and beyond the standard. Obviously passing a 1st class medical is a staggering achievement :/ but i'm thinking more about things people do extremely well above the standard. They're may not be room in for aviation but i'm just trying to entertain the idea.
