No! It's a step in the WRONG DIRECTION!

The company cannot simply decide, unilaterally, that they want to compensate SOME of their pilots outside of the collective bargaining agreement that THEY AGREED TO!

If the company wants to pay their new pilots more, they're going to have renegotiate the contract,........ which means they are going to have to pay ALL OF US MORE!

Do you think the company would stand by if the pilots adopted the posture that they will no longer come to work unless the top 50 senior pilots were no longer subject to the 12 year pay cap? Of course not. One party to a contract cannot simply decide that they are going to ignore or abrogate an existing contract, (unless the other party ALLOWS it to happen).

Allowing the company to unilaterally abrogate the contract is a step in the wrong direction.
