If you cannot get enough support for that sort of drive, it is, because the majority of the pilots in your base do not agree with the position.
The contract survey is not out yet, but will be by early fall. It is on about the same timeline that the survey was done for C2K.
When are the next elections? Prior to the contract or opener? If not, and the opener is weak, then we have a year or two before the contract is done, which is enough time to vote in DPA. That could delay a contract, but it will more reflect what the group wants.
