As much as I desire to move forward and I'm sure we will eventually as unified pilot groups, can't help but voice my frustration over how little has been accomplished towards this contract.

It's clear while many sections have been finished, the hardest fought and most problematic areas have not been touched or even discussed much against the portrayal certains figures have made about progress and achievement.

While scheduling and hours are a complex and critical part, by far the meat intended to fight over is outsourcing, JVs and scope as well as pay.

It's seems these have not even been discussed? Scope alone dictates the futures of several work groups. Perhaps I'm pessimistic but how are they to close that gap in such a short time?

Maybe others have more confident positions to speak from.
