I sincerely hope they win. It would be a welcome change to see T&C's on the way up again.
This industry is not short of cash, and it's time the ruthless got a dose of their own medicine. It's pilots who deliver safety and efficiency everyday. We're the ones who make their shoestring operations hold together, and pull them out of the poo when the chips are down.
I might be a lone voice, but I really wish the guys at AA well. I hope that just for once we get some recognition for the ridiculous rosters and the constant fatigue. I'm sick to death of people within our own profession grinning with shadenfreude when yet another great aviation job gets shafted by some private equity shark.
It's high time we drew a line in the sand.
