Scambo, thanks for the clarification, but I still feel like the fact that this thing got as far as it did is disturbing. No polling, just a gushing e-mail from the MEC chairman last week telling us what a great deal the TA was. I expect more heading into contract negotiations while working for a highly profitable, well run airline.
