Now that's funny. The "lack" of experience that your team has in negotiation speaks for itself. How many contracts have you negotiated? Oh, that's right 1. Your first one when you came into ALPA that was about 2003. Then there was the "givebacks", no Section 6, in 2007 approx. When you guys where with the CAL independents they did most of the work for you. Where you even flying in 1996?
