This TA is about as bad as it gets. There is a provision that allows for pilots to build up to 90 hour lines. Also, VSA, probably the most divisive item in the current contract (150% pay over 85 hours flown on days off), just got more enticing with this TA. So the selfish bastards who volunteer to help the company on their days off for a little bit of extra cash (while we have people on the street) will be running in overdrive. Net effect is the need for fewer pilots so the 60 guys on furlough will be out alot longer than any of us originally thought and with the signing of this TA we will most definately see more furloughs. It's that bad.
