If you'd like to know what I think you could simply ask. Would I support using BK to set aside parts of F9's CBA? I don't want to see any paycuts anywhere. Why would you assume otherwise? When have I ever mentioned anything stating such? All I've said is that these two airlines were about to put everyone on the street. That's been altered because they are now purchased by RAH. I don't expect my QOL to go down because of this. If it does that negates the reasons for having a union in the first place. I'm sorry but I expect our union to look after it's own first just like I expect F9's to look after them. There's no "here's a little gratuity" this is life. Just like XJT hen SKYW was putting a bid on them they fought tooth and nail for what they were entitled to based on their previously negotiated contract. It's no different here. Airlines have folded left and right over this pass year and it's sad but I still expect our contract to be followed. The second you allow and exception it all goes down the drain.

On a side note F9 pays less than CAL, JUBL, SWA, etc on equal size equipment. I'm not trying to be hard headed about this but there's no reason RAH pilots should be put behind F9 or midwest guys automatically. Completely my opinion but doesnt seem right. We have guys on the street and since they've been paying dues since day one they deserve to come back here first. I don't think a TWA style of setup is bad at all and I think they'd be lucky to get it. Take notice I used words like ME and I before any armchair QB's start trying to say I'm speaking on everyone else.
