It pains me to say this, but while we have a hard working EXCO trying the best they can to get Horizon pilots great results when it comes to negotiating with the company, there are simply too many uninvolved and self-centered pilots here at Horizon that were not supporting their EXCO. As one example, just prior to the vote that gave the Q400 a 4.2 daily min guarantee, the EXCO wanted all pilots to not pick up 200% pay that was declared to be outside of our CBA. This was in the midst of the pilot shortage that cost our last CEO and his underling their jobs. You might be shocked to have heard some of the reasons given by both junior and senior pilots here as to why the EXCO had no right to suggest they shouldn't do premium pay trips and make that extra 50% pay. It was a pathetic show of support towards our EXCO, and they felt this pilot group had not reached a point to where they were serious about improving our working conditions. They felt the last offer the company had presented was the best we could get at that time.
