That ridiculous proposal was the best thing that could have ever happened. It allowed the other side to present whatever they wanted. I wouldn't be surprised to see that nobody wants to take credit for crafting that gem of a SLI proposal. 1-for-1? We should buy Alaska and then propose 1-for-1. Would people still believe that all Captains are the same? And we must be overstaffed because we have so many pilots and they offered COLA to the entire pilot group. Yep we're overstaffed.
Turns out the fences didn't really work as planned. 0 LCAL pilots on the 747 and 26 LUAL pilots on the 787, including the top 8 FOs in SFO. Its just going to get worse when the fence falls completely. Especially in LAX.
I can see why no one wants to take credit for that SLI proposal. I'll bet if you asked any of them they'd claim it was one of the other members that really wanted it and not them. They probably wanted to actually use the union policy and not make their own up.
