maybe so, but by this vote your group has redefined what industry leading is. you've done a disservice to other groups still in negotiations looking to reach the point at which you USED to be. when your management comes to you asking for more, and they will, will you vote to lower the bar again? i guess it doesn't matter since you're still the "industry leader" and all.
Like I said already earlier on this thread, how would letting the leading contract in the regional segment disappear not perpetuate the problem of lowering the bar as a lower costing pilot contract would take over the flying. This way, the industry leading contract is preserved despite the LOA.
Our MEC chairman said that other regional MEC chairman thought the TA would be worse and that this TA wouldn't hurt their negotiations. Until someone actually matches the current XJT contract, that will be true. But I hope many are able to at least match it though.
And like I said earlier on this thread, I doubt management will be asking for more because they will probably just file for BK first.
