How about a new "Real" Unified Pay Scale.
Increase B scale by at least 10%, A scalers can go to 65 as long as they sign up on new pay scale. Any A scaler not wanting new scale can stay on A scale but retire at 55.
Manage the introduction (somehow) to minimise delays to command up-grades to junior pilots.
But we are getting off the thread....back to the nominees...
By the way, just on CNN, United to cut number of a/c by 100!!! Mostly 73s, and job cuts!!! We need to strong Union more now than ever!!!!
