Which is why imho pass or fail the product of this nc and mec will be remembered poorly by pilots from every airline for a very long time.
Pilot 1 "Remember that time when Delta was setting historical records and their MEC agreed to 8% raise plus concessions?"
Pilot 2 "oh yeah, what happened then b machining did the pilots vote that down?"
Pilot 1 "believe it or not they..."
To be continued.
I unemotionally believe that it is cost positive for the company regardless of the guidance from outside financial institutions. IOWs, use Gloopy's logic on gifting them back $100m and removing the concessions and see what they say...I can tell you it'll be no deal.
