I am a new guy flex and a junior wb capt. I can only hold secondary lines. My pay stinks in the schoolhouse or on the line.
I could quit as an act of solidarity. Quitting in my case would violate several parts of the ALPA code of ethics.
I totally understand why the senior guys would quit. They will enjoy better pay/and or QOL on the line or reserve.
The guys & gals that stay need to say no to draft. Believe it or not, union solidarity in the schoolhouse is pretty strong right now.
