From their update yesterday: "The APA board of directors adjourned its special meeting mid-afternoon today. We will recap highlights of this week's meeting in tomorrow's APA News Digest, including resolutions that the board voted to approve."

Nope. If that's his offer, stick with the current MOU, AND in that case Doug will wind up paying what DAL is making with their new contract in 2016. Current DAL pay rates now and a pay parity review in 2019 is a good deal. If he's not willing to play ball with the labor groups, I think a lot of pilots will avoid AA and go work for DAL and UAL. I already know some in the military that have no intention of applying to AA unless things get better.
