Excellent. Let's talk about what they make on their 7/7. A 17 year captain makes 184k! Less days much more pay! On their cc52 a 17year captain makes 175k. Ways less days. Still much more pay. After the vote. An 18 year 8/7 captain at Flex got a 5k raise UP TO 113K. Extremely pathetic.

Well SCOPE helped the fo pilots against KR vindictive actions. It was a grievance against them that kept the fo pilots flying the phenoms. If not for that he would have succeeded in stapling all fo pilots to the bottom of the seniority list(illegal) and killing the union off.
