Most of the F/O's I fly with are either AFAP or ex-AFAP. In fact some of them prior to this document were some of the most supportive union pilots I have flown with. To paraphrase another historical figure "Its the lifestyle stoopid."

There’s no obligation of the company to meet us at where we think we should be through our lens of entitlement. It’s just business, and it appears to me the company has come along way in meeting us much closer to where we’d like to be through robust negotiation.
Members will come and go and opinions will fly everywhere, ops normal. I just want balance in assessment as it is so often the negative sentiment holders that are the noisiest in the room.
