I'm not probationary. Also, it seems like people forget that things change overnight. We were hiring 1000 pilots a year until we furloughed literally the next day (remember 9/11) You who think something catastrophic isn't going to happen before the signing of a new contract are out of touch with todays world. I doubt the restoration of longevity and back pay for furloughed pilots will ever be seen again. But who cares right. And to mention, if this isn't passed, all of the previously furloughed guys will continue to work at less than 12th year longevity.
