My biggest concern is that the company can pay us $400 a trip, and they cap us on lines at 90 trips with no room to make more. Language is the key, voted on day one, but this language needs to be tight.

You were around for the overstaffed days of 2018. That’s what I’m afraid of. That will be the way we get capped is by not having enough flying or worse…..the trips get inefficient.

Yup we still worked the same number of days for green bar line guarantee. Everyone was a cheap reroute solution. Rewrite or it’s a big no.

Correct me if I'm wrong but the months and months of green bars didn't start until the Max was grounded in spring of 2019?

We had green bars before the Max was grounded. That just exacerbated them.

And the wonder bug. Hopefully lessons learned but I doubt it with this pilot group.

Voting closed earlier today (after only 11 days of the initially planned 31 day voting window). 98% of eligible voters participated with a 99% YES vote.. 81 voted no and 221 did not vote in that time period. WOW!
