yeah… When you say “junior guys making more than senior folks“… It really does not sound like you are talking about two pilots from the same tier. Kind of sounds like you were talking about you versus a top-tier narrowbody FO bidding for that seat for QOL.

Not to mention, even in this convoluted and very specific scenario, I am assuming they are not holding a furlough letter, which means with early outs they could easily graduate into the middle third and instantly be making more than you.

how many people want to come up with half-baked hypothetical situations in their reading of the TA? It doesn’t seem to take any more than one additional step of logic to realize that the situation is not as egregious as so many would like to believe. And/or one of the requisite conditions for the injustice would actually negate said egregious “carveout”…
