For years, we pilots have been our own worst enemies. I thought that might be changing when the UA pilots struck in 1985 over new entry pay.

It's been almost 30 years since then. Oh sure, there were a few gains after that, but that ended with the UA pilot contract of 2000. Since then most pilot groups didn't see a concession they didn't like. Especially the majors.

It's ironic that the regional's are now leading the way. Maybe the majors will see the light and and follow.
