I did a little home study. You appear to be correct. Interesting. My wife lots her job too. Another pay cut for me means big time problems. Left seat from big airplane to little airplane, plus the decrease in productivity is really three pay cuts since March. One more via a LOA or AIP means a fourth. Nice to see our full time trip loss sausage making brethren are eating at the same food trough as the help. Basically, we will have Captains making FO wages on their take home pay.

Who is making the deals to buy the votes? What is the gain? Is this all about personal loyalty and allegiances to specific MEC officers? What is the pay off or payback?
