Not for nothing, but our Union issues aren’t exclusive to us. United is in the process of recalling their entire MEC after rolling out that travesty of a TA. They can’t even start negotiating again until they’re all replaced. Meanwhile one regional after another making huge gains. Bizarre times we’re in.

Only slightly more than half of our pilots disagreed.

And if you do the math, 3% is 50% more than 2%, so they really got us a 50% raise. Good job guys!

If you know your history President Polk ran on a slogan 54-40 or Fight!! To take Oregon from the British. I think our new slogan should be 20% or Strike. Yes, I know we can’t strike like that thanks Railway Labor Act but it’s catchy and makes a statement.

There will be little left besides an order book and a lot of very disgruntled senior CAs because all of their FOS will have gone elsewhere.
