It is hard for me to believe that you could be flying a public transport aircraft around the same sky as we are, no-one can be as naive as you imply you are with your posts.

For every person there comes a point at which you say "this far and no further" and if 98% of your colleagues agree with your assessment then it is time to do something or forever bend over and take it, which you seem prepared to do. Quite frankly I am surprised that you are not employed perhaps in airline management, you seem to have the attributes that are so popular with upper management at many carriers and BTW responsible for so much labour strive in this industry.

Withholding your labour is the last step in a long process to try and inject reality into negotiations of working conditions, I do not know any Pilot that would happily chose a route which has no alternate, but sometimes that is all that is left.

As it has been said many times; 'you do not get what you deserve, you get what you negotiate"

I do wish you well!
