Hey,Guys. I am a brand-new member to this forum. I have never, ever logged on or posted anything until now. In the interest of full disclosure, I'm a PMNWA 1995 hire. I am a solid "NO" vote on this turkey, but that's not why I posted.

I just want everybody to be safe when we go to work. Don't give the MFs the ammunition to further denigrate our profession. The last thing we need is to have an incident or accident because of distraction in the cockpit.

I hope I'm not insulting anyone's intelligence, I don't mean to preach. I just know my own limitations! I personally plan on making the cockpit a "TA-free" zone for a while. Good luck, Fellas... I hope this finally makes us a "Union" again........
