If a company can't afford fair market value set by past precendence then it should not be in business in the first place. Again, I believe we will have MAJOR contraction in this industry and we should. If that means my current job, I'm ok with that as long as it will benifit the whole.
If there is major contraction to be had in the airline industry, it is going to be amongst the legacies.

We currently don't have any reasonable way to curtail managements actions or reactions that directly affects safety. We NEED that help for so many more reasons than just the paycheck.
The lowest common denominator is an outfit like Southwest. Their kind of operation is not going anywhere. They are able to make a profit, pay their pilots well, operate safely, keep costs/fares low, and do all of those things consistently.
