The immediate future is this: We will regroup, reassess and continue to pursue all lawful avenues for bringing about an agreement, including the work begun in close coordination with ALPA National to obtain a release from the NMB. The NMB has told our JNC to take a brief pause until we reconvene on Monday, July 9 in Washington to receive a status update that week. (These meetings are not bargaining sessions and there are currently no additional mediated negotiating sessions scheduled.)

Very Interesting Statement ^^^^
Per the NMB Chair's instructions......Both parties are to take a week off, reconvene in the NMB's backyard (Washington, D.C.) on July 9th, and NO mediated/scheduled sessions are planned.
The $$$MILLION-DOLLAR-QUESTION$$$:
Is that meeting to inform UCH's Mgt that the Pilot Groups have hit an impasse, and the NMB's opting to beginning the 30 Day Cooling Period?
Fellas(ette's), until July 9th, let's NOT give the Company ANY excuse to pin ANY illegal action during the "11th hour". Until we are told "hell NO" from the NMB, let's keep our noses "x-tra" clean for the next week.
Fights still on.
