[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 72452, member: 1246"] racerx: Here's an excerpt from a San Diego paper.....it also mentioned "outsourcing" as a point of contention, but didn't go on to explain. I'm guessing it's about China and the new routes and expansion in that part of the world. "Pilots object to the pace of pay increases, which they say start low then show a "severe slope" in the fourth and fifth year of service, before flattening out. "We don't think that's fair to our first officers, or to our young captains," IPA's Gaudet said. At the other end of a pilot's career, Gaudet said, pensions do not reflect a pilot's years of service. "Our guys are retiring after careers at the airline, getting checks of $1,500 or $1,600 a month," he said. UPS said it has offered increases in pay, pensions and other benefits to pilots that are already among the highest paid in the industry. "If you look at what's happening throughout the airline industry, you'd be hard pressed to find a pilot group that's not losing their pension or giving back pay or concessions," UPS's Giuffre said.
