It kills me when I hear fools bash RAH, like our contract is anything like MESA's. Like Fly said, its certainly not the best, but is FAR from the worst. I'd say we fall right in the middle for pay, with some pretty solid QOL work rules like no junior manning and no hot reserve.

Do we have room for improvement? Absolutely. But are we bringing down the industry? Absolutely NOT! Comair's contract was the industry leading, so to say RAH brought it down is unfair. EVERY contract out there brought down Comair's. We all hated to see yours get cut in BK as it hurt OUR bargaining position, too.

Hate what deals that our management is inking, but don't hate on the pilots or our contract. We have no control over management, and are working to make a solid but average contract even better.

Here's to raising the industry average for all!
