Umm, I think you'll find CAL signed a contract that pays $31 an hour for 777 Captains. Yes, I know there are no 1st year 777 Captains at CAL, but there were new hire 777 FOs.
And which regional pilot group was it that invented the "B" scale? Oh yeah, American.
Which regional signed a contract that allows a subcontractor to fly their routes, at lower wages, so long as their furloughed pilots can have jobs there?
UAL, US, AA, CAL.
(I think DL tried to too, but OH said no thanks.)
If you want to claim the moral high ground, this is not the foundation you want to start from.
