Where do you come up with this stuff?
OK quote: "25-A Amendable Date
This Agreement shall become effective on the date of signing hereof, shall continue in full force
and effect through and including January 31, 2017,..."
Simple math says (and I believe we all agree here) this is a four year contract. so adding four years (as you state) this would make it a possible 8 years and that's 2 short of ten.
Considering my fellow sUAL pilots have now lived with a BK completely concessionary contract for 10 real years, including 2 for negotiations, I would say I have some simple knowledge of "where this stuff comes from."
Considering this is not a concessionary contract and then comparing the past 10 with the future possible 8 (I'll concede your worst case scenario) the two are apples and oranges.
Thank you for the response though.
