There are concessions in there related to sick leave and the JV that even I didn't see coming. I also didn't see the profit sharing hit being as big as it was. I figured another 2 percent like C2012. Is it really as bad as it seems? Is there any chance of this being the first TA ever voted down at Delta?
Based on the pilots I have talked with and my personal feelings on the TA I don't think it will ratify. If the company changed the 1 Jan raise to 8% and altered the LCA trip issue I think it would easily ratify. As currently structured it will fail to ratify. For 50 million more a year the company could have had the deal signed and delivered. In this case I think they have gambled a little to much.
