1. Blend time-and-a-half into straight pay with a 3% bump.
2. Get an HMO.
3. Staff the airline to a level that provides the open time and reserves to meet the goals set in the White Papers. Pilots should have input on a minimum level of open time and reserve coverage.
4. Establish a pilot elected pay and benefits committee - the scheduling committee should not be commenting on pay. The scheduling committee should have term limits to eliminate the featherbedding and cronyism.
5. Take 401K to 6% matching and pay profit sharing as profit sharing - in cash. My retirement should not be dependent on whether or not this industry is doing "well" or not. Profit sharing will still provide incentive and we will have a 401K that approaches what other pilots in this industry enjoy.
