I should have made my posting clearer, sorry. I meant that, compared to all other airlines we rank the highest in productivity meaning performance. Yes, working less and getting paid more while maximizing time off is an increase in QOL and I do feel that SKW pilot are among the best at that as well.

As far as your earlier posting on 1.95%, yes I fully understand what union pilots gain from having representation, but I was making an argument that most pilots at SKW make. Personally I would rather pay the 1.95% because it’s insurance, in many ways. Also, 1.95% being fully tax deductible means what, an extra $100 on your tax returns?

Good day.
