Thanks for starting a thread like this .

More than 1/3 of the pilots who will vote on the next contract will have been on property 5 years or less. I actually heard a statistic from a Union rep (not sure how accurate it actually is) that, if hiring and retirement continues at the predicted rate, in 2020 50% of the seniority list will have been on property 7 years or less.

Educating that part of the pilot group on the history of contract negotiation points is going to be crucial to the pilot group being both unified and making good decisions.

Unfortunately, it is on the veterans to grab your newbie FOs and start the conversations, because many of the new-ish hires don't even know the right questions to ask.
