What is the reason for this? I assume it's becasue they would rather not pay a wage to attract qualified applicants. Your union allowing this to happen is reducing the pressure the company feels to attract pilots. Attract people with $$$!!! Looks like the contract you guys just signed is outdated, should have asked for more.
The union doesn't hire pilots. Only way they could is if the company agreed to it in the contract, and I'm pretty sure that isn't the case there.
The second part is true...why pay more when you don't have to.
