Also, the majority of the complainers at OO want less hours, so then why would anyone want to waste negotiating capital to make only a few extra bucks a month, if any, since many want to work less than 87.
$50 is $50 man. It can go in your pocket, or it can go in the company's pocket... I'm sure the pilots it would be more than a $4 override anyways.
Yes that's great that most pilots want less hours, but people are being forced to fly over 87 hours regularly. Shouldn't pilots be appropriately compensated for being over worked?
