I see so UAX pilots should just sit idly by while their OWN pilots are illegally denied the JS on their/our own aircraft........if the UAL Mainline guys would GIVE up the seat they know they shouldnt have it wouldnt be a problem.... but then that might inconvienence some mainline guy.... what if UAX guys were getting a mainline seat over a UAL guy... holy crap batman what would the fall out be... but see its "just" a regional guy... so mainline pilots couldnt care less.
i dont like this either... but not sure what the answer is.

Politics
I just deleted two posts that were political in nature. I realize it's difficult to discuss some issues without bringing politics into the mix, but please self-moderate and keep your posts within the guidelines of the TOS.
Please send a PM to HSLD or Freight Dog if you need clarification on this or any other APC policy.
Topics Not for Discussion
There are currently NO forums that provide a venue for discussing politics or religion. While DreamLaunch Media Ltd. and Airline Pilot Central embrace the diversity the world has to offer, these subjects often are very emotional and there are many different views. In our experience the wide range of views and emotions rarely contribute to a harmonious online community or beneficial contributions to the piloting profession.

I wish the mainline guys would lead by example and stand up for themselves for once..........

I remember them (the pilot group) agreeing to multiple concessions.
I also remember the CAL/AA pilot groups agreeing to a concessionary CBA and NOT being in BK.
I believe the only group that had pay "forced" on them was AS. And that was by an arbitrator.
