Your quote: "Remember FO IOE trip pulls? Union says: "it only affects 2% of FO's" "
They said it was 2% of FO rotations not 2% of FO's. An important distinction.
Additionally, I put far more faith in the accounting from the ALPA Economic and Financial Analysis team (actual real accountants) than the shoot from hip accounting on here, Facebook or ChitChat.
There is a method for costing. It's not the Internet Rumor Method.
That was truly worthless information. 2% of FO rotations when looking back.
What percentage of FO rotations in a few years when the training burden is vastly increased? When every category from 777A to 717B is turning over every few years? Ill give you a hint - its a lot more than 2%.
Choose your poison, internet disinformation or DALPA spin? At least with social media we get a lot more viewpoints some sage, some wacky, but at least we are getting more than 1 point of view.
