Obviously your on the freighter from the tone of your post, let me ask you this! Would you be taking such a tone if you weren't? I can almost guarantee if you weren't on the freighter and in fact on the 777/Airbus you wouldn't consider taking unpaid leave.
At the end of the day why on earth should a senior pilot sit at home and not get paid when pilots junior to them are still employed. The airline industry always has been Seniority driven and we all knew that coming in and more importantly when we joined, its the reason so many of us have stayed for so long.
LIFO or not in the new contract, I expect junior pilots to pay any price before senior pilots it's just the way it's done. Regardless of colour, creed, age, sex, nationality and or religion. How about we start by dumping all the second officers, then maybe we can all get some more hours to pay our rents on this new POS 18
