Agreed, the union is doing about as good as they can given their counterparts across the table.
^^^^ This guy gets it. At least someone is making the OT pay rather than it falling to someone who would have flown it on reserve anyway.
It’s not like Envoy furloughed to the point where they are running out of reserve pilots for trips/turns.
