As long as Parker can kick the can while still having the cheapest pilots out there, there is no effective offense unless and until the corrupt NMB stops surreptitiously assisting big business in their pummeling of labor. The arrival of the pilot shortage at the legacy airline level is likely the next opportunity and that's years away, well beyond our next section 6. Too little to late for many here, unless we agree to settle again for a few dimes on the dollar.
From what I gather MU is picking up straight open time? This is frowned upon at AA?
