I first heard about it from the original MSP Capt rep (voted out 6 months ago?) when I talked to him about 10 months ago. I was upset when I heard that, thinking it was ridiculous. I then sent in a DPA card. Then I read the TA, calmed down, and looked around at our direct competitors, the economy here and Europe, the duration of this contract, the pretty good pay for the next 2 1/2 years (Jan 1 2015----19.7%), parking loads of 50 seaters and reducing outsourcing overall, and bringing on 717s, and it was a YES.
