Of which only 36 will show, 32 will make it through, only 20 will stay for the first year. Meanwhile we will keep losing our 10-15 a month like clock work. By July we will be at critical staffing.

And then they will get to chose, should be short captains? Or should we be short FO's? On paper being short Captains is cheaper when the flight cancels.

In that case they better come with an industry standard offer to include SCOPE SCOPE SCOPE, Pay, Retirement, Retro, and Profit Sharing by April to ratify by May if they want us to save them. Because they are too far behind the curve for a new contract to get enough guys interested in this place to be online by late summer so it's up to us to save them with premium pay pickups right out of open time on top of the new scale. Otherwise, they can enjoy the dumpster fire they created with their senseless greed.

We need to keep as many Aces as we can for future negotiations and arbitration down the road.
