I will fight all the way. There is no reason for it except corporate greed. It is time to fix this industry. Step one is to get paid what we are worth, along with fixing scope. Step two which will happen with step one is to charge a realistic price for a ticket.

Yes, this means that some will lose their jobs, but the industry needs to be fixed. Airline execs are just doing this so they can push of the need to fix their horrible balance sheets a few more years. We are turning in to shell corporations that are designed to make no money.
You are right. We need to fight until there is no fight left. Just as the Midwest Pilots were getting hammered and replaced by low cost less experienced labor, not one Major pilot group spoke up on our behalf. Delta and NWA turned their back on us. We have to stick together as one if we don't want a bunch of last year's sim grads flying our routes for a quarter of what we were making.
