I think that there is more than one way to make our next contract just as valuable to pilots while removing the variables associated with profit sharing.

Does anyone honestly believe that this period of economic expansion will continue unabated? Does anyone really want their pay tied to managerial performance? I would rather eliminate uncertainty during the next downturn, and beef up our work rules, which are notoriously hard to change in negotiations.

I think this will be a tough sell to the membership. Probably an impossible sell if the projection for next year's profit sharing is correct.

I'm just one pilot, anyway, I'm sure there are about twelve thousand other guys with better ideas...
