I couldn't be happier if the based guys EFP started at 100+ hours and I was rostered for (and flew) 84.00.
Are you nuts??? Once they're on a 100 hour RP, how long do think it would be before the rest of us have it forced upon us?
Your justification:
Like them, maybe I'd get a lifestyle back again.
is a classic case of short term benefit for long term pain.
Despite your handle, what you are proposing is not "Progress", it's retrogression!
