Yes, but their raises haven't kept pace with inflation for like 40y. Currently many of them could make as much or more flipping burgers. They deserve proper pay. Boeing did FAFO by trying to outsource and they are in the FO part where the union has power now that outsourcing has proven to be non-viable.

I do think all contracts should index to inflation. But I'm not in the union to nobody cares what I think.
