The sentence that opened my eyes was toward the bottom, “I think I will make more money, both long and short term, if we secure gains and move on…” Okay got it. I shouldn’t vote on whether I think this TA benefits the overall pilot group, but just me.
All that "group as a whole" stuff went away in 2007 with the Age 65 endorsement (the unanimous one) by the MEC.

It's all whose ox is getting gored, now. Funny thing is, several of the ones that signed that document are the ones telling us to vote "no" now......
