You gotta be actually silly to think it's the right time to vote for change... Listen to the overwhelming support from the volunteers who are on the ground every day working for the pilot group and expressing their support for EM. Previous chairman's endorsement should be enough to sway anyone to not vote to change. But ex hotel committee members are bitter and voting and swaying young pilots with emotion. Not logic.

I didn’t mean this to be a complaint about system reserve or the fact that senior pilots are bidding for it. This is a great thing for the pilot group. No question about it. Senior pilots can bid for whatever they want. I get that.
My point is that we’ve been hearing for years about how the company wants (and has offered) to improve reserve rules, QOL and pay, but the union is turning down the offer ‘because it only benefits junior pilots’. I have heard this explicitly several times. My comment was to point out that this is an absolute lie. Improving reserve would benefit senior pilots first, because they get to hold it first.
If regular reserve looked like system reserve I wouldn’t be able to hold it. It would benefit every single pilot on
Our current MEC is using our current reserve pilots misery as leverage. It affects all of us and it’s deplorable.
