I am a yes. In the balance of things right now, this could be a good opportunity. Knowing SWA and how long it takes them to do anything new, I highly doubt they will get their act together in time to make a significant impact. If it keeps even one pilot gainfully employed, then it is worth it. It's a concession but relatively harmless.
how does it chip away at section 1? This flying isn’t being outsourced...
