If you want to change things, focus on the actual problem rather than some vitriol-driven strategy that history says will only lead to failure.
1) The Railway Labor Act 2) The dysfunctional National Mediation Board Energy is better spent fighting legislators than it is getting pilot groups served with lawsuits. |
You guys are smart and I'm sure will figure something better out. You've been great at raising the bar so far and I'm sure it'll just get better. Have fun trying to change the RLA with that negative attitude and have fun flying your shinny jets for less than half of what the rest of the world flies them for. Just ask yourself...what would legacy pilots do if America, Delta, or United made them fly for your wages? Would they stand for it? I guess they're just better than us.
I give up |
The futility of the system is the biggest reason I left the airline hamster wheel.
Also, realize your wages are because the mass of pilots NOT at the majors believe that THEY will one day be a B777 captain making big bucks. Once there, you will realize that 40 years ago, REAL BIG bucks were paid to the B707 captains. GF |

They know that your typical regional pilot isn't going to fight them in court when they are sued. You will be alone and responsible for your legal fees. Management knows that you guys don't make enough money to fight them in court and too, they know that the regional pilot doesn't want the stigma of having been sued for labor issues. Good luck getting hired at a major with that on your record.

That would really suck if mngt and the union got all up in a lawsuit and stuff. I mean, if they start fighting each other when are they going to have time to fight us? Wouldn't that be just like the divide and conquer they use on us (that works so well)?
