I think most conservatives favor competition over a gift for labor. He's all for labor I think, but he wants companies to compete. I think the entire thing was rushed through. However, our ALPA legislative army should have been able to thwart this and explain to both administrations what unfair competition is. ALPA needs to do a better job in making the aviation industry great again. Trump wouldn't have needed to do anything if Obama had done the right thing. ALPA needs to be able to communicate to congress and the administration more effectively.

Hard to hate when UA’s 2nd year FO rate is higher than our 20 year maxed out Captain pay rate at Skyw. His critisism doesn’t have much ground to stand on.

I’ve never failed an interview at any airline or company. I have more flying experience than you and most mainline pilots. I can get hired at any airline I want. But, I’m financially well off and even if United offer me a job, I could not accept it based on my schedule and vacation. I value time off.

If you don’t understand the criticism, you must have little aviation/airline experience. Not a surprise, United likes to hire young and inexperienced pilots...ha!
