REZ Disclaimer.....
I'm not a FX or freight dog pilot.....
Indy actually.....
(that means I can call my airline Mom and Pop, Mickey Mouse...etc... And with our loads, I can take up to 50 Freight Dogs as jumpseaters..... C'mon boyz!!!)
If the FX pilots don't get the jumpseat back, again, what is the issue....?
I was disapointed the Delta pilots didn't get unlimited in their earth shattering concessions.... But that IS difficult in that, to get unlimited the DAL guys have to get FREE travel for ALL Delta employees. Gate agents going ape-$hit when off line pilots can ride for free on THIER airline....when they have to pay even $5. But I don't know the real deal. Any Deltoids out there got info...??
Back to Fred Smith..... If FX doesn't get the jumpseat, why? Just don't assume that the FX pilots decided to game the system....and take for granted the fact they can still jump on us....
I just don't turn away a fellow pilot, I can always use another crew member, plus I let issues get solved at the leadership level....
It is not about me me me.
"What is in it for me? Can I jumpseat on you? No! Ok then you can't j/s with me. Sorry...Cya later Freight doggie.... bye bye"
C'mon guys we are bigger than this... Better than this....
Once again, grey. Not black and white. Certianly not a one man army issue.

All very noble. I truly believe it is your management driving the issue. That said, I'm left behind while you go. How much more emphasis would be placed on the issue if the JS was no longer available as opposed to the somewhat comfortable fallback of knowing it is available? Just a question.
"Indy Air and other similar mom and pop outfits"
Certainly a way to endear yourself and further your cause of continued JS privileges on said airlines.
