Wait a minute, I seem to have heard this before...is that you Maury?!?...

CLMP said it perfectly, if we accepted this without a fight, the whole industry would soon look like Allegiant. We will fight this to the bitter end so this crap doesn't contaminate the entire profession.

Maury's plan actually worked for the flight attendants: force or entice senior disgruntled people to quit and replace them with the never-ending litany of bright-eyed, gushing replacements. Right now the pilot pool consists of regional types looking to get out of their eroding circumstances and see this heap as a step up. In the last few months the company has hired 20-30% of the pilot group. What our delusional management fails to realize is that pilots won't fall for this crap and our new hires are already on board with the union.
