If, it passes the MECs then it will be distributed to the pilot group. I have said this before, and I mean it sincerely; please read the whole contract, make a decision based on what you think is right and what you think is wrong, but for gods sake don't open one section and say definitely yes or definitely no. If you are one of those guys then you are doing yourself, your colleagues, and future pilots a disservice. This isn't about one side or the other, we have to start thinking collectively and stop berating each other. Yes or No, we have to work together from this point forward.
I'm gonna read the thing right up to the point of the first concession and that's where i'll stop and vote. NO!
Don't tell me you are that stupid. Read the whole thing to get the big picture. Don't be one of those guys that sees a $1/hr cut and misses the work rules completely.

You are already doing that, and don't think this contract will be any different. Leave.
