I disagree with Sailing a lot, guilty. But, he always stays professional and I respect him for that even though he catches tons of grief. I appreciate his points of view as they definitely further and add to the discussion.

The best thing about sailing is you can agree/disagree with some or all of what he says and the tone doesn't change much. It's much better than the all or none, take no prisoners tone of some posters.

As far as the AE goes....I wouldn’t get too excited about a dream award or a lot of upward movement. I think a lot of people will get reinstated to their pre-Covid category and a few will move up into the ER category in ATL and maybe NYC. If you’re hoping for a Widebody A award, and you weren’t previously displaced from a widebody A position, you’re going to be disappointed.

The point is our contract is our contract. If there are things in our contract you don’t like, then lobby to have them changed. Better yet, become a union rep and fight the fight for the furloughees. Write better protections into our contract instead of beating your chest against your fellow pilots instead of the company. Don’t throw spears at your fellow pilots who choose to fly the contract.

Ok the contract is the contract, I got it. My point is that is that’s if we are unwilling to give up hours, especially premium hours, to help save furloughs, then maybe we should shut up about unity and how much we care etc. Because clearly it’s about the money right? Of course we don’t want to gut the profession, but these aren’t rate cuts or benefit cuts, just hours. It’s just greed over people, that’s all.
