And I did recognize what T is saying. That's why it's just like the GIB.
I'm sure your experts from the ATA and ALPA say this. These two organizations think that pilots are idiots and will believe that increasing pilot flight hours from 8 to 10 hours per day will reduce fatigue, and increase the need for staffing. Pilots aren't idiots. Sully isn't, CAPA isn't, and many of us who wrote letters to kill this part of the proposal are not.

And as much as this might disappoint you, your transparent attempts to preach the ALPA talking points are not persuasive.
