Bu then again, you are right. Whay should I care what happens to pilots at Colgan? If Colgan pilots don't care abou the issue why should I. Point taken.
But before I go explain this one:
What happens when the musical chairs stop and no hiring takes place for a time and the most senior FO is waiting on a Captain slot. Will he/she be pay protected as a Captain since he/she could hold it but there are no vacancies for him/her because there are pilots junior to them sitting in the Captain seat? Answer that one if you don't mind.
I cannot answer that.
That is however, EXACTLY why they MUST vote in a union.
