I dont, not at all.

Gotta admit....its a strategy that has worked pretty well for the management at this airline. 'create' problems, that then get dropped in front of as group with a vested interest in keeping the operation running to 'solve'.

BRILLIANT!

Management runs into the crowded theater and screams FIRE!!.....and a couple thousand pilots head for the retirement door.......oh no....we cant move the metal, help us alpa!....

Hey, I know....lets let these pilots 'retire'.....take the lump and deplete the trust to entirely unsustainable levels, and then....LET THEM KEEP WORKING.....GS and all! Yeah, thats the ticket.

seems we would have learned that lesson by now. I am not in favor of longevity pay or any other 'solution' that would decouple pay and productivity. Management has been aware of, created, and as correctly pointed out....AGGREVATED the demographic reality we are facing.

That said...I am NOT opposed to constructive solutions that DO NOT permanently alter our baseline PWA. Relief? sure. Sunset/snapback on that relief? ABSOLUTELY.

upcharges IRT compensation for that relief? Ya, youbetcha.
