Not how I remember it. I went to a company roadshow in LAX way before we got anywhere near arbitration. 26% and the A plan is what they wanted from the start. I remember the promise by Ayer that the FOs shouldn't worry about it because with all the growth at 10% ROIC we would be Captains in no time. Lol.

Honestly can't wait for a real pilot uniform so we can look the part. Never fails when you walk in a pilot uniform to a gate agent to jumpseat and get the, "are you a pilot?" question. I'm all for being cool and hip but if other airline employees can't even recognize that you are a pilot, then the uniform probably has gone too far.

Believe me, there was a LOT of stuff going on behind the scenes that the average line pilot had NO idea about.

Have you considered the easy route? Walk up to the agent and say I am an offline pilot jumpseater and I would like to standby for the cockpit jumpseat.
That way you would not have to walk through the airport in fear of a $13 an hour shift worker bruising your delicate little ego by asking "are you a pilot."
Maslow would like to talk to you about your first world self-actualization problem when you have some free time.

It would be sweet and would make you feel pretty awesome.
