You keeping up?

You seriously think any of this would've happened by now if we'd voted the extension down?

If you don't like your QOL, you can now work significantly less for the same money you were making 10 months ago.

Plus we had to vote down a substandard POS TA and then you guys raised the bar. I'm sure it was a factor.

Big thank you for voting down the POS15 and holding the line on no more large RJs now. Hope when the final TA wording comes out you guys like what you see.

I think all groups are starting to get that it's a team effort to raise the bar, not a competition.

would be great if the groups stuck in bidding wars at the plethora of rj operators would start to get it - and raise that bar as well. seems the only reason the boards and c-suites at the legacies use rj operators is to be able to have pilots bid against each other in a race to the bottom

As a group they have shown a greater collective will at saying "no" than the legacy groups.
