First of all, it was 62% - not 68%.
62% did NOT say it was good enough.
62% voted YES...big difference. DALPA completely mismanaged our negotiations, there can be little doubt of that left. The proof of that is most of the really bad actors in that drama are gone now.
Signing off on a deal without consulting the MEC, then handing it to the MEC for a vote as an already done deal needing a rubber stamp was a disaster. Many of the pilots who voted YES did so becasue they realized how completely outclassed our MEC leadership was, and it would be that same outclassed leadership that went back into the real Section 6 negotiations.
