A quote:

"Is it "unrealistic" for the company to ask for a 40% pay cut AND renege on our pensions? If not, then it is absolutely realistic to seek "restoration plus" back from the company.

For those not well versed in numbers a 40% pay cut requires a 67% pay raise to return to par. Voting "yes" for less on this TA will ensure you make less in 2018 then the rates negotiated nearly 20 years earlier!

If the Company is this motivated to come to an agreement with ALPA under the RLA you can bet there is a lot more money to be had. Don't vote no, vote "Hell NO"!

And on that point it doesn't matter that I don't know what is in this TA."

There ya have it!!
