The MEC could have voted NO. They did/could not, they did the next best thing sending it to the membership with MIA, DFW and N.Y. abstaining, basically a vote of no confidence. The only ones who were for the AIP/TA are the ones who never say no to management on anything the ORD and Training Reps. Also one of those casting the vote of yes for ORD was an unelected representative, because the F/O ORD rep resigned because he could not put up anymore with the BULL from the ORD Capt. Rep Glenna.
So all in all we have been placed in this position by 3 pilots. The pilots at Eagle if they can see past there fear and past there selfishness will realize this will not stop management from coming back next year and doing the same thing. Because we have a contract good for another 7 years and that did not stop them this time, why will passing this AIP/TA stop them from coming next year to do the same thing.
Be Prepared, Be Strong and VOTE NO
