That sounds vaguely familiar.
Not sure where exactly the letter originated from, but there were two pilots handing it out at the 44 meeting last week, one of whom claimed that he wrote it. The guy didn't look anything like Bill Murray either...
There are plenty of good ideas in that document, a few pie-in-the-sky dreams, and then there is vacation sell back - which I will never be okay with no matter how much the company is offering to buy it back at.
1.5x over 80 has be rehashed so many times I think we should leave the dead horse alone. I agree with sink that we don't need to further incentivize pilots to fly high time...this leads into my biggest concern with our collective agenda going forward: just because the hiring/retiring is supposed to be chugging along for a decade+ doesn't mean we should overlook these types of staffing-negative items. Just because we won't "feel it" due to the movement doesn't mean it's ok. Eventually the music will stop again, and it will suck that much more if we erode our work rules/staffing requirements.
