ALPA filed a grievance after United gave us the boot, saying the concessions were predicated on an affirmed contract with UAL and the pilots accepted concessions under false pretenses (ie LIES from ATW). It went to arbitration, and the arbitrator ruled in the pilot group's favor. We expect at the very least to get the 2001 contract back, and many expect full back pay. The arbitrator gave the union and company 14 days to come to a "remedy", or "one will be provided".
