I've got a number of good friends on the CRJ side as well, and all I can say is that I hope the two pilot groups can work together and take the best from each contract and get it (or better) for the new CBA. Furthermore, I hope it happens sooner rather than later, so I can at some point at least hope I can bid to the CRJ side in Atlanta.

I know it's easy for everyone to get riled up about the details of our contracts - everyone has a lot at stake, and the people that have been at both companies a lot longer than I have have much invested and much on the line. Let's all give each other some latitude and respect each other's situations. I think we are better off unified than at each other's throats over details. Let's just see what happens and discuss / vote when the time comes. Hopefully we will have good reason to be happy then.
