This reminds me of the JCBA... Pinnacle and Colgan were jumping up and down about the "better" pay rates except they were the bankruptcy concessionary rates that Mesaba had... oh and then there was that nasty detail that the Pinnacle FO's were actually taking a pay cut after factoring in the medical benefits changes.

I've got way more important things in my life to get riled up about than this. We wanted it back. It's back. Is it as good? I have no idea. I'll survive.
