Did you not read where I wrote at time of "DOS"? If this passes, 2014 and beyond is still a year away.....THUS not industry leading at the DOS regarding the pay. Don't get me started on the time-lag regarding some of the agreement's implementations (time-line).

You are correct on Retro regarding their "recent" PWA, but with regard to the Pilots JCBA at time of Merger, the Pilot's received an "equity stake" within the company.....something we have ZERO to show for. In most cases, the equity payout was much more handsome than the peanuts/payout structure that we are receiving by way of our lump-sum. In our case, we were told from the start (See CEO Exchange - EWR 2010) "NO SOUP for you" regarding an equity stake. I guess, we were "good" in just getting "peanuts" by way of the TA's lump-sum payout???? I'm sure am not.

You are correct, I don't. However, I do respect that you and I both have a vote on the matter.
