Why not get together a group of line pilots to file one?
They know, but by all means, file an NCC and see what happens. No MEC support = no teeth. The only reason an NCC or a full blown grievance has any effect on the company is the threat of arbitration, and you can't go to arbitration with out the MEC. The only thing that has any effect on the MEC is the threat of removal from office. Bottom line, if the MEC doesn't want it, it isn't going to happen. This lack of enforcement is the result of having an MEC that averages two big goose-steps to the left of Marx.
