Same went for the UAL pilots. I'll admit that over 80 hour pay was nice, but I'm not willing to fly my butt off to help UNDERSTAFF an airline. Guys are yelling they want C2K rates back, but how about the work rules/staffing formulas? As a combined group we barely exceed the size of the former stand alone DAL pilot group. That's a lot of jobs lost, & a lot more work.
