I think about it this way. Senior pilots are currently getting 16-20 days off per month. Junior line holders are getting 12-14 days off. Our contracts say that minimum days off are 10-11. If the trips become less efficient, I don't see the companies increasing their costs by hiring more crews. I see them giving less days off to cover the same amount of flying.

Do people disagree with this??? Why or why not???
