After all, that is not the way the FAA says it should be done. We shouldnt have to quit because a company violates the FAR's daily. And we cant quit because of the pay issue. For everyone saying, there is nothing I can do. There is plenty you can do, but its your attitude that makes them think there is nothing you can do. If everyone unites and says we have had enough, it can change. But its people like you that will never let that change. And yes, I am furloughed and I will not go back to flying. Im not sure what im going to do, but im done with part 121.
If you accept an assignment that violates the FAR, then you are violating the FAR, not the company.
