It just doesn't seem to be getting done by the major unions. They're looking out for the individual interests of each airline rather than preserving the commercial pilot profession as a whole.

We should be setting minimum standards for pilots. Those companies that can't provide these "minimum standards" should not exist. Additionally, pilots should refuse to work for those companies that do not provide minimum standards of benefits and quality of life.
I would take the job. On one condition:

"If you're good at something, never do it for free."

I would need... 0.1% of every pilot's yearly salary. 90,000 airline pilots, salaries ranging from $15,000/year ($150) to $200,000 ($2,000) with a median of $107,500 ($1,075) equals roughly $96,750,000 per year.

Yup, that should about do it. Y'all let me know when you want me to start.
