Thumbs up

I see that two of our own Spirit pilots served in leadership/instructor roles at the ALPA Advanced Accident Investigation Course! Great job, gents. Way to go!

Ref: "More Questions than Answers" article, pg 30 of the August Air Line Pilot magazine.

Ok King, im Not about to start an argument with you about this, you obviously know every RA pilot that came here, I don't, but i know at least one tha made that comment. I won't generalized, so with confidence Im pretty sure that he thinks Pref Bid would be a good thing here and that in favor of MORE money he would consider giving up pay protection on cancel trips (zero sense).
I was lucky enough to be here long before the strike, just to see that today we are becoming the minority at a fast pace.

That why I asked the question, it it was just that, a question. Moving on.

The majority of Spirit pilots will vote for whatever is put in front of them.

I don't think anyone is going to vote for PBS, loss of our four days off, loss of transition conflict or any of our other QOL issues unless this contract is world beating. Talking CAs maxing out at $600/hr, W-2s upwards of $400K. Anything less than that, I dont see anyone voting a reduction in our QOL.

You don't know that. The majority of this pilot group wasn't even here for contract '10. Many of us have had our arses kicked at other carriers and won't stand for any bullsh!t.

I have to agree with your post. Many of us have seen what crap is like, and will not tolerate any more of it, especially when the going is so good for the industy.

I still have small hopes for what you just said. But then again, I have been proved wrong.
