2015 ?

That would be past the MOU duration. Technically without another extension to the JCBA timeline, AAG is required to proffer arbitration and APA is required to accept. Since negotiating DURING the arbitration process is possible, that WOULD be the way to kick the can past the holiday's though. Personally, if Glass plays that scam, I think APA should then reward that by a resolution that any agreement outside of the arbiters ruling must be as good or better then APA's counter proposal. The point would be to slam the door on strategic can kicking tactics by that character and make it pointless.
