Envoy's will almost certainly have none of these. All PBS will do here is allow management to do more with less. Less need for captains, no DTS, no conflicts, essentially nothing for most. Hearing from those doing parallel bidding, it supposedly has been awful. I cannot fathom why this pilot group would be inclined to give this management another gift considering the treatment they've gotten so far.
