If UA pilots had done this and accepted a dogdoo payrate to get the 175 and 145/200/700/900 on property years ago, the kids who've been airline pilots for 6 months and are still living in their parent's basement would be getting furloughed instead of the 35-45 y/o folks who put in 10-20 years at the regionals only to get scooped up last year and now getting furloughed when they finally made it. But UALPA MEC has managed to convince UA pilots that it's better to make $0/hr on furlough when a SkyWest 175 captain is making $120/hr flying DEN-DFW. Well done chaps.
