I can see both sides to ANY argument and could have just as easily pointed out facts for or against. I was simply trying to make a point or cause some thought that might not have been considered. Just because I pointed out facts or questioned someone automatically makes me a "cheerleader."
I can assure you, and if I were to ever fly with you or be around you, I will be just fine with either a yes or no, and won't whine about it. I'll be happy just to have this over with either way.
I was just asking what I considered to be a reasonable question, not attacking you. I just really have a hard time understanding how you, or any other pilot(Bzzt, etc.) could even consider taking any concessions... I don't see how it's possible that everyone in this profession aren't so sick and tired of sliding backwards that they finally wake up and take a stand against any further concessions and just vote NO! Regionals are canceling flights and pulling aircraft and routes due to the inability to staff. Commutair just got offered large raises with increased benefits including paid hotels in base for commuters. If now is not the time to stop the slide in this profession, then when?
