And a no vote isn't a vote to put yourself out of business. 80kts and others who have intimate knowledge of how Delta operates have explained why that's the case on this thread and many others. It's all a scare tactic. 9E's fate does not hinge on this vote.
What does, however, is the compensation of every regional airline pilot for the next decade.
I haven't discussed if I feel that the danger of going out of business is real or not, however I do not believe we are not going to affect anyone else's contract unless they let it.
If you don't like what is presented to you, vote no.
That is the exact choice I am presented with at this time, you will get yours next, irregardless of how our vote turns out.
