50% pay isn't accurate. 50% MPG is, and is a mixed bag. Yes, you are earning less, but you are also only working 7.3 days a month (assuming bottom 1/3 and working MPG and 5 hours a day). At 7 days a month, most of us will have plenty of time for a side hustle to make ends meet.

Anything that comes out with a B and/or C scale is dead on arrival to me.

And I have been previously Furloughed by this company.

She was the fastest thing around
Long and lean, every young man's dream
She turned every head in town
She was built and fun to handle, son
I'm glad that you dropped in
She reminds me of the one I loved back then

Are we setting ourselves up for this in the future?
SK even has a name for it, “variability”. He has mentioned that this industry needs “variability” for the slow times. AKA migrant field workers. Don’t let him get away with this model. If we do this will set a precedent and we’ll be fighting this for the remainder of our careers.

kind of exactly like 76 seat RJ’s.

I will wait for the details to get pushed out to the pilot group before I make my decision on reduced MPG....

I'm concerned this maybe the beginning of the end for ALPA. Not happy with splitting the pilot group by 1/3s. The bottom 1/3 keep their jobs but get insulted with 39MPG. Why not have have a standard 50MPG across the group? Does ALPA always have to cater to the top 1/3 of the group?
