Denny,
One way to answer this without a "food fight" was to ask; where was our contract most deficient compared with airlines in our peer group? That's your answer and will continue to be the answer in when pattern bargaining is a factor.
The good news is that others have used our agreement as a model. We should be able to pattern upwards now instead of having to explain why ye' junior Bucking Bar makes more than a US Air bus Capt.
