I frankly think its worse when a well established union from a well established airline votes to accept deep pay cuts, thus re-defining the pay scales of everyone smaller (including startups)..

Using your pay scales to define everyones pay!!!! Yes it is worse!
Rat bastages!


A start up with lots of promise opens up and tells its workers .. in due time you'll get paid better (and I assume their pilots will expect it), that's not so sad in my book... that's jobs.

I wonder how that is working for Jet Blew??? How long is due time???

So you'd turn away a VX or SX pilot?
