imagine FAR 117 disappearing
Imagine you are at a carrier that is covered by FAR 117.
Now imagine that FAR 117 is rescinded after you've gotten used to its rest provisions.
How would you feel? Would you expect different compensation in the aftermath of that decision? If so, how much, and in what direction? Why?
I hope this foments a good discussion. But I'll have to let the discussion ferment before I rejoin it. I'm beleaguered beyond belief.

PolicyWonk,
This anonymous forum is open to any pilot, from any airline. I think you have quite clearly established that you are not a FedEx pilot, but you keep posting on this sub-forum as if you were. It is kind of annoying. Why don't you go do that elsewhere? There are plenty of anonymous forums where you can have fun (if this is your idea of fun).

Now Cloud, you aren't being fair. I want to hear some more how I can fly draft while I'm on vacation!
And before anyone flames me, its a joke about a question policy asked.

, but that question about DRF/VAC finally confirmed the suspicions. I sure hope it's not MEMBrain/Fegelein having found access to a new username, again.

It's hard to read between the lines with him or her. But, it did make me think about how we've negotiated things in our CBA and now seem to be "rescinding" some.
