B6 ALPA s double speak, unwillingness to continue to fight for stated goals and all around attitude is horrible. It’s not my job to worry if they can staff the airline, fill classes or retain people. What was that quote? “They pay market rate for Aircraft, MX and fuel. It’s time they pay market rate for pilots.” Something like that. Point is PS is the market rate. It literally in every peer set contract. #FixtheformulaFixtheproblem
