I can understand why you don't want to delay things. I felt the same way about west pilots when they refused to have anything to do with USAPA at first and when you voted 97% for the MOU and THEN claimed it was illegal. F'em, move on.
This is a mess. I don't know what will happen. Maybe it will roll on and the outcome won't be any different, although we will never know.
I've voiced my concerns to my CBA. That's all I can do and it's up to the rest of the pilots to do what they think is right for them.
I agree, went through the agreements and I cannot support the claim I made.
However, it is interesting to see the company's take on a new East merger committee to skirt the 9th.
From Siegel:
"Now, from the Company's perspective, we were entirely neutral in the course of that DFR litigation. We took no sides.
But having taken no sides, once we read the injunction, and we have a -- or not the injunction, but the Ninth Circuit ruling, we do not favor attempting to maneuver or to create workarounds on federal court decisions.
And if the purpose of suggesting a new committee be formed is to then be able to assert that the new East committee is not bound like the prior East committee under the USAPA name, by the Court decision, would be to ignore what the Ninth Circuit has said.
And we don't favor that."
