How long would it take your company to re place 75% of their pilots
Serious question...How long would it take for each legacy and regional carrier to replace 75% or more of their pilots if they resigned in mass. I know the railway labor act prevents strikes and CHAOS without mediation, but what if the unions came in with boxes full of letters of resignation that will be executed if wages and work rules are not moved forward? I am new to this game but slavery ended over 140 years ago.

Probably a long time since I don't imagine that they would be apt to hire anybody that resigned as part of such a ploy....
Either way, it won't ever happen. |

It's a liitle, no a huge stretch to compare our situation as airline pilots and slavery. We have a choice, slaves do not. |

What I am saying is that the RLA denies unions from using their leverage to bargain in good faith for better living conditions and wages. Hell janitors at General Motors earn more than first year FO's anywhere...what did they pay to acquire their skills? |
Mine would be out of business long before they could train the scabs.

I'm curious if that is your take on the situation, why are you comfortable with the current starting pay at most airlines... |
