Just something to add in the equation.
The pension isn't going anywhere, it is still very well funded. AA contributed roughly $10K into my defined beneftis plan (and the bulk in the B Fund which is mine now). Work rules are certainly better than many other companies now. As for not being productive, if you want to fly up to 100 hours a month here at AA you can. There are provision in the contract that allow it. Wether it would be appropriate with guys on the street is another conversation. However it can be done.
Hey crjammin,
I am an 8th year FO on the 80 making $99 an hour. If I bid the A300 with Int'l overide it would be $114 a hour. Not sure were you get off poking fun at that with those rj rates you make.
We are in sect 6, and everyday there is more resolve to get back what we lost.

It is so funny to see so many rip on AA, DAL, or UAL, but they will line up a mile long to make nothing in the right seat of E-190.
