Wouldn't raising the E190 pay to 717 pay, or even 88 pay, solve a lot of the problems associated with a 1 year seat lock causing too many training cycles?
It actually seems like it shouldn't cost DALPA anything to raise E190 pay to where it should be, since it would help the company with the alleviating training cycles.
God! I love the new hires! Unfortunately, that's not how things work here. Wish it was, but nope. Everything, and I mean everything has a cost associated with it. Even something that would save the the company money, and not cost the pilots a dime will be parsed, and argued about ad infinitum.
