Again, I can't comment on the captain pay because the 12 year cap certainly puts us on the bottom. However, none of this other vitriol is true. This is where people generally mention the SAP.
This is an exaggeration man. Yes it is not functioning the way it was negotiated but it is still, by far the best QoL tool in the regionals(apparently QX has one as well). There is nothing the company could throw at me to give it up through a vote. 10/hr? Nope. 15? Nope. I'd start considering it at 20/hr and we know that isn't going to happen.
I wasn't saying they'd offer you anything to give up the SAP. I was suggesting something more along the lines of their Eagle threat. "Accept this deal minus the SAP or else". Would the guys there stand strong? I hope so.
