The portion you quoted states "year one first officer rates." Would you agree that the purview of the LOA is more than just first year FO rates?
If the LOA applies to more than just first year FO rates then why shouldn't it apply to all pay rates within the CBA?
I think as pilot group we need a paradigm shift away from accepting whatever crap is thrown at us and start standing up for what is right.
