Or maybe you guys are arguing about something completely different in which case, Im all effed up.........:-)
VB,
You are not effed up. You are correct about pay. We are both bubble junior Capts <g>. I stand by the pay getting corrected for F/O's. So I lost a gain in Capt pay, but eliminated that mill stone around the neck of the IPA.
