THAT was part of the JCBA that the fNWA guys had no hand in crafting. That was the way it was going to be, period.

Had the fDAL negotiators NOT given that away (and it was GIVEN away), we'd either still have CPZ or we'd have our DC-9 replacements.

It amazes me still that such an epic crank steppage occured.
