Based on the behavior and actions of our pilot group we better be happy with just pay parity to the industry. We have shown that most are subcontractors and self serving individuals. They show no ability to add leverage. We are on course to get played again with short term draft/AVA until the economy turns a corner into a downward spiral. No one to blame but ourselves. No Unity or willingness to sacrifice for the betterment of the profession or our pilot group. Even when it’s clear we have been asked for months to step up and do our part.
Ask yourself this. Once the economy slows, draft/ava dries up and staffing is caught up what leverage is left?
Answer: None
We are missing the boat as it pulls out of the harbor.
