Recently someone stood up at a hub turn meeting and suggested that 90% of the crew force is suffering reduced BLG for the benefit of only 10% of the most junior people and suggested a furlough was best for the majority of our pilots. He was of course entirely correct (except for the furlough part). That is what a union is about and that is why you’re a member, so that you don’t have to stand alone when you are one of the 10%. As one of our founding fathers said, “ We must all hang together or we will surely hang separately”

Weather you are over 60, a nugget, a new hire or somewhere in between we must all remember we are all in this together. The majority must stand up for the minority or we’re all screwed.
