Well I've attended the meetings and talked to people in the know and the stuff on here is....well crap. LXJT is getting PBS and some of the outliers will be gone with the new contract. That's a fact. The hold up is the SmartPref/Flightline battle. I'm not going to point fingers because I think it will get worked out.

As I said earlier, I've only ever encountered one ASA guy I didn't care for. The stuff I see here is a few extremists arguing. The vast majority of us want a deal done and that will happen. I will say though that when ASA was looking at potential furloughs a year or so ago nobody over here seemed happy about it...you guys on here wanting LXJT to fade a away (along with over 1,000 pilots hired post merger) are reflecting poorly on your pilot group.

If I were to guess, the ASA side wants Flightline locked in now because if it isn't then it could eventually come down to a pilot group vote...which would probably swing in LXJTs favor. Since we are losing airplanes, there is perceived leverage.

We should all remember that we will eventually be flying together and act accordingly.
