No offense Cliff but "I believe" leaves a bit of a gray area. Can anyone confirm this? Did the pilots take a percentage cut? Over the past 8 years most carriers took cuts but don't know the previous history of MWA.

The Midwest pilots took over eight million in concessions in 2003. That's a lot for only 290 pilots at the time. Those concessions ended up giving the company almost $30 million over that five year period. The concessions were mainly work rule related because the scum TH did not want to reduce our hourly rate. Hard to justify giving yourself millions when the people who provide those millions are taking wage cuts. We gave then and we are giving now in the form of Republic taking our jobs. Anything else?

Please tell us why pilots being forced to take over a fifty percent pay cut while others on the list are thrown out into the streets and being replaced is funny to you. I guess you are all for lowering the bar. Enjoy your ride at the bottom.

Some Republic guys just see this alittle different.
I mean, if you look at SkierGuy22 postings. He's furloughed from Republic, just got his Gold Seal CFI and is working on his ATP license. He's not concerned about pay scales, work rules, benefits, retirement planning or the future of our profession. All he wants is to build flight time and upgrade to Captain so he can apply at a real airline.
Congratulations SkierGuy22 on getting the Gold Seal.

I'm no fan of yours dirtyrat, but I do and always have empathized with your situation. That said, I'm truly sorry anyone would have so little empathy and respect for others that they would joke about your situation. If this poster is indeed one of our pilots, he/she is an embarrassment to our group and to pilots in general.
