Didn't say that - now who's being silly? If you want to disrespect the 737 and 320 Captains, have at it but keep in mind that many of them are senior to you and will take their seniority back after your little carve out ends.

BAT lost it's right to be considered a lateral when we allowed the 767-400, which is common to the 756 fleet, to be pay banded to the 747/777/787. Tell us again what the win for ALPA and ALL United pilots was again.... Please!
Yes, JH agreed to BAT and you should enjoy your little carve-out, but don't expect high-fives from the guys that have been wronged.
