If one evaluates the contract as the best current solution to stop the whipsaw and is in good standing I believe you're entitled to stay in the respectful constructive debate. I've read most of the gripes of the TA but I propose as a response to every single one: What is as important as ending the conniving whipsaw?
You are absolutely correct Chris. Problem is that while we are on the bad side of the "whipsaw" there are several thousand UCH pilots that are on the good side of the same whipsaw. Yes, I know...we're taking over IAH 756 flying...sure. Hell If I were a CAL guy I wouldn't want to have an ISL with us either!!! But I'm not. We (UAL) need an ISL ASAP!
