Outsider looking in, I wish you guys the best as it is going to be a tough decision. I read the "TA highlight" pages and wonder who it was written by as it seems very biased towards Captains. There is a lot more focus on "top end" pay scales but I don't think you guys have very many people at that end of the scale, meanwhile you have A LOT of people that were hired in the 2005-2007 range. If you track this longevity throughout the TA there isn't much of a bump in pay, especially if they already fly the 170.

Again, I hope you guys get the best contract possible but this doesn't look very impressive to an outsider (especially after the length of time it took to get to this point).
