The 11,000 pilots at Southwest voted in a contract that ups pay 50% over the five-years of the deal. Meanwhile we are getting laid off in Tech. TC:$240k https://www.fox4news.com/news/southwest-airlines-pilots-contract.amp
Congrats to the pilots
If you have been following the aerospace sector. This is actually bad news for pilots. Northrop and Lockheed currently working on autopilot landing/take off system with remote operation by control tower as backup, such that only one pilot is needed instead of the usual two pilots. Higher pilot salary will increase the ROI for this auto landing system and cutting the required pilot by half. Which may eventually paved way for no pilot system. Similar to airplanes used to need a radar technica, a navigators, flight engineer in addition to two pilots. Now all former 3 positions had been replaced by machine.
