As a result? What result should rob a pilot of their years of service? Are you advancing that, in truth, that a pilot who works for a smaller airline with no wide bodies, no international presence should be awarded greater seniority to longer tenured pilots with wide body flying? That’s the rules? No wonder our younger pilots are driving for change. What’s happened here is wrong. What’s happened to the TWA pilots is wrong. We all know it. Yet-we’re casting these wrong principals on our next generation. ALPA nor APA is the answer. A new union needs to be formed and moved forward. Clean slate. Shame on the rest.
Im not saying that at all. I’m saying it was changed due to how unjust the Nicalou award was. But, it wasn’t his fault. It was ours(collectively) due to the poor language at the time that caused the decision to be made. It’s much more fair and just now.
