Again, why was ASA able to get 6 months of benefits for a larger group and why did some MEC members claim credit for getting those benefits the first time around? I guarantee that giving up S3 was not the issue, especially because it came from SH! I give though, no more arguments from me!
If you are so hell bent on leaving ASA then why not just talk to a chief pilot when you need to fly anywhere, for an interview or whatever, and I'm sure they can help you out...
Seriously? ASA kicked me to the street and said don't expect to come back for a year or more. You think I should be sitting on my ass the whole time? Do you even know what the job market is like right now? I'd honestly like to return - the pilot group in general is a great group of guys and I enjoy the work. So why the personal goading? BTW, the chief pilots were willing to offer buddy passes when we asked.
Anyway, have fun with it! Regards, Marc Nicholson
