There might be a decent amount of XJT guys but that doesn't make them any different than anyone else there and doesn't make them the majority either. Regardless of what they/we want doesn't mean it can't or won't happen. We'll see how good the union really is. Remember CHQ once flew 170's in violation of scope clauses and paid a fine for it. Even with the fine they still made money hand over fist.
