Just out of curiosity, instead of saying “the company will find a way to abuse us,” please tell me how/why the company would want 1/3 of its pilots flying 50% schedules long term?

the seasonal worker comment would make more sense if guarantee was halved and their were no caps. I am praying that any TA with reductions in monthly hours awarded would also have caps on both awards and OT pickups.

so if caps are in place, how does the company abuse/benefit as we return to normal? And no, they won’t just disregard our protections, unless the whole UPA is now null and void. A corporation can’t just simply pick and chose which aspects of a contract it adheres to. This simple train of logic seems like more than most of the FPLD guys/gals want to address.

If you feel like you don’t need to attract anymore people to vote NO, by all means keep saying “you just don’t get it” (except AXL16, who tries with exasperation and tact to tell me I’m full of crap), but there are plenty of minds to be made up. So please tell us how 4,000 pilots working half time (assuming caps) are desirable for the company.
