Are you or any of the other pilots you quote aware of the fact that Southwest President Gary Kelly is getting a little concerned about his labor costs? Do you think USAirways post merger, with a hub and spoke system (and a semi-dysfunctional one at that, now that we inherited USAir's PHL hub) can match the revenue that Southwest makes flying point to point? From what I understand that kind of flying makes for more productive parings,hence more money. And finally do you think this pilot group has the cajones to walk away from their jobs if it comes down to that like the Eastern pilots did in the 80's? There is a reason why we are the lowest paid out there,you know. Do I like that fact? Hell no. But I gotta tell you, I'm getting dam tired of you and many others at AWA thinking Southwest is the "Holy Grail" of airlines. Like I said in a previous post, if you like their pay better than ours,if you think it's a better deal over all , then why don't you go there? No flame, just an honest question.
