This is not true. The judge has to approve the terms they desire. A judge looks at the rest of the industry. He is not going to impose an industry worst contract just because the company demands it. The company has to show what other companies pay and prove that the American pilots are getting too much. They aren't. I expect them to lose some work rules, scope, and have their retirement modified. They will come out much better than they would have if they passed that TA. Delta pilots live in fear of the unknown. Alfaromeo's post proves this.
