Go back and read the thread where I posted a detailed analysis. It's all there. Downgrades and furloughs.

If the company would offer a reasonable VLOA credit amount more would take it. If this MOU is voted down, that should be our next offering AFTER we ask for a survey of how many would take it. The company didn't bite because of the uncertainty on how many would take it.

Yep, fake numbers!

Unless you're management (and I highly doubt that), you don't know $hit.

Pangolin, well said. That's exactly what I think will/should happen.

I advocated that many month ago.

I completely agree.

Do some chair flying. Some people have had to go through AQP after not flying for 2-3+ months. Better be ready, I heard they’re looking for any and every screw up now.

I figured they would be. I’ve been out 6 months and I’m due. It’s gonna be an awesome time😂

I'm tempted to take it right now due to my rapidly deteriorating tolerance of all the COVID theater BS. Increasing VLOA hours from the paltry 20 on offer right now would likely push me over the edge.

I can show my work. All public info. You don’t believe it but that doesn’t make it false.

I don’t see them sweetening the pot on vloa. They still have to pay all those hours and get nothing in return. Even remaining current is voluntary so they will still have training costs when people come back. It would be nice! But don’t count on it..
