You mean the company the NWA pilots themselves agreed to? It could have never happened but they voted yes to allowing them to be created. They also didn't see it as whipsaw but furlough protection , which a few guys did take up jobs when they were furloughed. The NWA MEC wanted things in house if the outsourcing was going to continue. O and most of the contract provisions were straight out of the NWA contract.
