The reason the company wants to hurry it up is that the environment is not favourable to them. I.e. They can't say sign this or the company is going bankrupt. Or we can't afford to give you X without concessions in Y. The company would much rather buy us off quickly so that in 5 years the environment will be better for them to give excuses (like we aren't the most profitable Airline in the US, we are not growing, the economy is weak, fuel prices are taking too much money from profits to give pilots a raise. Etc.)as to why they can't give us improvements in all areas with zero concessions! If we can't get this now, we will never be able to as the conditions have never been more favorable to Pilots since deregulation that I can remember. Nothing but across the board gains will be acceptable for my vote.
