Woofers thanks for posting your rationale for voting yes, as it takes some courage to throw yourself into the pit to face a large opposition.

With that said, I hope that you do realize this affects your QOL much more than any of us can comprehend. Less widebody opportunities and lower paying replacement aircraft (739, 321, e190) are driving pilot wages in the wrong direction, and the higher TLV and LCA bidding will have a detrimental effect on everyone. If you are a senior FO, a lot of the trips youre bidding will disappear. Someone ran them for the md88 in ATL and found that 90 percent of LCA trips had weekends off. 90 percent. If you are a CA, and since youve been furloughed are probably not super senior, you can expect that many of these "400k FOs" who are senior to you are going to upgrade above you and push you down.

Overall a decent argument, but it appears your ves vote is partly due to some resentment of FOs who bid with LCAs and for that I cannot for the life of me understand why you would want to spite them. Were all in this together, everybody wins this way. We have lots of losers (every pilot) under the new TA.
