Meh...vast majority of us would rather those birds just stay parked in the desert. They're trying to grow us back to our pre-merger, pre contract battle shenanigans that sent 1,500ish of our pilots abandoning ship. They are looking at again having a 3,000+ pilot group and 200+ fleet. All of this growth does more harm than good for our pilots. Staffing crunches, displacing FOs to CA, excuse to meter our flow to only 25/month, etc....We'd be better off just staying hull neutral, getting caught up on staffing (which would have numerous QOL benefits), and not having our flow metered.
