Again, im not saying theres no validity in staying with bonuses, but theres is also a lot of validity in going to pay rates. Long term, the money is better in rates imho.

We dont know the rates yet, so it may or may not be built to 75. If its not, express your displeasure with your union. As for NYC, thats a different conversation enitely. Everyone knows the issues with that, and I think well see some things nxt year to help offset the negatives. Unfortunately, someone has to fly NYC, and we have been given the flying, might as well make the best of it.
Unfortunately for you it's going to be 85 hours each month just to break even with the bonus...that is simply not attainable for a majority of this pilot group regardless of seat. I am not ready to give that up yet...give me the bonus for an extended period.
