Question for Usair Pilots.

[phishn@daves]

I just wanted to know what the general consensus was over there? I know how the union tries to keep everyones best interest's in mind when they go to the table, but is this something you guy's got to vote on?

I know it's a $hitty deal over there, better than the alternitive.

Please don't take this as flame..........I recently jumpseated down to Barbados in the cockpit for 4 hours, and talked to the pilots about the future of the company. This was in August, before any of this happened. They basically told me that they did not want to lose anymore of their pay, And I think anyone can agree with that!

Well, I just wanted to see what you guy's really think about all of this.

Take care, and we wish you all the best!!

Ahh, I see. I didn't read your fine print earlier. I just know from experience that a vote is "expected", however..........we didn't get to vote on our contract extension. So I was just curious.
