Did you ever read either volume of Flying the Line? Maybe spend less time preaching on apc and more time researching how to be a good union pilot. Think that stuff would fly at the majors?
You voted in increasing the flow from 4 to 5. That was selfish. Why would you vote that crap in? Wait until they offer a flow of 15 per month. A good flow or nothing at all. Why not stop the flow all together until they increase it to 15 a month?????
Why did you accept something that only benefited a small part of the pilot group? The 5 per month will never help someone over 500 on the seniority list, but you still voted it in just to benefit yourself.
It is the same thing.
And the majors have been doing this crap for years. They sold scope for a few dollars an hour raise. Their crap stinks just like everyone elses.
