I say you and alafly are both right to a degree Capt Mark. Some guys will take anything -is that a positive- and some will question any change to the job they thought they were getting.

ALAFLY - One thing that seems for certain is that something untasty could come along any minute at any of the carriers.

BUT, if I was facing newhire to the right of the 75 in Paris with a family (say a 3rd, 5th, and 7th grader) back home ----see ya FEDEX. Family first, airplanes second. You owe your kids a good upbringing. You would have to be independently wealthy to get that in Paris on our payscale the first couple yrs with this LOA.

Alafly -- I am a clear NO voter. What you need to understand as you are critical of this LOA is that nobody finds it adequate. What some people are afraid of is giving you a worse deal by voting NO - so hopefully you get the opportunity to see how it plays out before they call! I hope it works out for you and all of us!
