The AOA represents over 2000 pilots from many different bases and countries; all on different COS.
They also have the bulk of their crew here in HK and obviously are spread quite thin.
I'm sorry if you and your 150 American colleges feel ignored but the fact is that you are not special, and get as much attention per capita as most others.
The American FO's were not the only ones to take a paycut with COS '08....just the most vocal.
Start your union and I'm sure you can change the way Swires do business.
