Let's get it together here people, this is getting childish...
I do agree that that was taking the quote out of context. And even if it isn't out of context, that's what I would expect my MEC to say about the other! Each MEC is doing what they believe is in the best interest of the pilots they represent. With that said, there were some obvious lies (or inaccuracies uncontested) told on that call. Off the top of my head, the wind down of the ERJs in 3-5 years, the 100 plus aircraft being parked all being ERJs, the status quo if the arbitration is lost, etc.
