YES. I never wanted a staple of any pilot group. I may have joked about a 3 to 1 against Mesaba but that's only because that was the deal the flight attendants were getting, and I wasn't serious about it.
What's fair about a Colgan pilot hired in January 2008 now senior to a Mesaba pilot hired in 2000? Fair is hardly the word I'd use to describe the SLI or its conditions and restrictions.
Bloch looked at everthing brought to the table, and decided what was fair. Some people might not like it, but he had no outside influence, called it like he saw it, and was paid a standard fee. That's called binding arbitration.
Godspeed!
