But I suppose if you were around then none of this would have happened.

This whole mainline Pilots sold Scope for pay raises like Dick Dastardly snickering away in some back room deal is pretty foolish. Management took mainline Pilots to the cleaners - I'm sticking with ignorance and naivete.

You keep bringing up how mainline Pilots traded away Scope but don't forget we also traded away our pensions, our 6th and 7th week of vacation, LOT bidding etc, in other words most of that stuff was outright taken.
