Great. Now how about my second question

Show me one post where I said it was bad to split a referral bonus. I'll wait.

Don't get mad just because I called you out on b.s.

There is a provision that would allow the company to temporarily dip below this number for multiple reasons, including grounding of a "significant" number of aircraft.

If so, why are you heavy in the Awac thread?

Of course you wouldn't expect anything else besides Spirit. You couldn't live with yourself if Awac pilots got some type of a deal with Delta or United.
That would completely devastate you knowing you left and missed out.
Crab mentality...

Exactly right. This provision will not stop downgrades from happening.

What I am concerned with is the union agreeing to any kind of LOA allowing dual qualification for Captains as oppose to downgrading. They've shown once that they're willing to squander bargaining chips for small payouts with no pilot group input whatsoever.

I know some have genuine intentions but if someone is interested in leaving I'm sure they can reach out to you. The whole Jehovah's Witness thing...
