In fact, there has been a long history of failure to protect our contract. You know the facts. The list is too long.

This will be my last post on this. I went over a decade without being on reserve. However the company has put so many 4 and 5 day trips in my category (717) that the past few months it has actually been to my advantage to bid reserve on purpose for several reasons.
I realize that most don't want to do that.
I also realize that we still have a lot of improvements to secure to get a strong "yes" endorsement from many pilots--and that is how it should be.
