Exactly. This sounds like many conversations had over in the regional forums "if we don't agree to this, we will lose flying"
It's a "no" vote for me.
Listen guys, we need to come to the realization that there will be a lot of sack checking these next few years with negotiations, flipping 180 degrees over an IPad LOA because "the company may screw us more" doesn't bode well for a group going into Section 6.
Negotiations revolve around a lot of paper sliding across the table to one another. As a pilot group we MUST be willing to slide paper back to our NC and say "we are worth more" and "close, but let's get it a little better." It's that or we as a group rubber stamp anything but in front of us.
Heck, even the FAs had enough sack to turn down their TA, twice!
