Do you honestly expect that the pilots at a company with only 28 airplanes will be able to "lead the way?" A little reality, please. They made an incredible stride forward in pay when compared to their old contract, maintained their above-average work rules, and got some nice kickers like a 7% limit on insurance premium increases. I think they did a pretty good job.
The reality is, that with the attitude of "we only have 28 airplanes," no they won't lead the way. Thanks for pointing that out.

Congrats, I'm glad that you guys are happy with what you got. Maybe your hard work will rub off on the rest of the industry when it is their turns.
