Whoa. Un-farking-believable. Too bad I was offline most of today so I didn't see this response sooner. It completely proves my point - that ALPA has accepted post-bankruptcy contracts as "the new normal" and thinks any marginal pay raises above those levels are some huge victory to celebrate. 18% over bankruptcy rates and you're ready to crow about it!? Subtract the 11% inflation since 2008 and it's even more pathetic. And really, by selecting 2008 as your "random" start date, 18% was the very best you could come up with. The terrible performance would be more palatable if ALPA showed any sign of distress over it. Instead they just send your ilk to defend it. Pathetic.
