Tony and Pinseeker,
Just curious, but do you guys think ALPA is ever wrong? I'm glad that we are keeping this civil and discussing this like adults. That's a good thing. I think we are all entitled to our respective opinions, but at the end of the day the Union should represent us and look out for our collective good. You will never make everyone happy, I understand that. This is a giant s--t storm brewing, and I think it's safe to say the majority are not happy with the position our Union is taking on retroactively bringing guys back to the left seat. All those over 60 pilots got to upgrade to the left seat and have some quality time in that seat because people retired and made that seat available. Bottom line, all you over 60 dudes----go enjoy your retirement and pass the torch!
Jolly
