Sonny, If our company gets larger aircraft and offers the flying of those aircraft to us we are not taking your jobs and therefore not scabs it is your company that is taking your jobs. the sooner you realise that the better for the whole industry.
Having said that the only question is than what is a realistic wage, obvious answer is x amount more(now you may find this hard to believe but management is driving this we will only get a look at it in order to vote if it acceptable or not) that is of course if there is in fact a proposal(this is a rumour network after all). Attitudes displayed by our peers have an influence on this and at the moment the only attitudes I hear from you guys drive that x amount down not up.
