I think everyone in EMS is well deserving of at least that  and a much higher base to begin with today despite recent rises. If airline hiring keeps up, that supply curve is going to steepen and companies will have to react with one of two options 1) do what it takes to get more people 2) reduce the numebr of people you need to maintain or improve margins at operating bases you keep.

It's great if your still have a base to work at in those 3 years but that is a hedge which you are now a part of.  I doubt the language includes any proration if they decide to let you go and in ther interim the base wage is it.
