There's more to it than meets the eye. Pinnacle's contract might be worse than everybody in the industry short of mesa. I had dinner with a PNCL crew in RIC a few months back while still at TSA and after discussing the differences between the two CBA's they made ours sound like it was industry leading.

Not a knock on the pilot group there. If I recall they negotiated this contract either years ago or it was during their recent Ch 11. We all deserve better.
