[QUOTE="Southwestern, post: 939993, member: 33209"] Broaden your horizons. Go to forums like Airline Pilot Central and read the comments posted by airline pilots of big, legacy carriers in 1999 & 2000 that blatantly stated they'd take every dollar possible during coming negotiations while brushing aside management's warning of looming low-labor cost competition. By the mid-2000s, the low-cost competition had surpassed the big, legacy carriers in size. All went bankrupt, dumped contracts & pensions, cut over 100K jobs, outsourced as much work as possible, etc. Had the pilots played a fair game earlier, they may have avoided the ultimate mess, kept their peers employed and maintained higher wages (and pensions!).
