Every single item in the contract is there at the cost of another potential item. Every single line item needs to be enforced by every single pilot.
This pilot group desperately needs a “how to act like a union member” education.
If it makes you feel any better, I did a PDR on it after the initial discussion here. ALPA looked into it and said it was a legal trip.
I get that there are a few here who don't like the fact that I enjoy my job and love to try and attack me on here, but it's all good. Hope you aren't joining that particular crowd, your posts typically indicate that you are not one of them.
