I think there was a misunderstanding on my part there. Of course I don't want worse work rules. I was assuming that there would be different rules in a new TA. Plus my reading comprehension was off a little there. For some reason, I thought you were a ERJ pilot and was trying to answer as such.

However, you said it would be expensive. Why? For who? The company or union or both? If they present rules for smartpref that would work for everybody, you wouldn't consider trying it risk free?
