Guys we're ****ed that we weren't going to make as much as DAL until 2015, and guys we're ****ed about LOA 25. Now, with those things fixed in a BIG way, we want more, more, more? I get it....it's like the old joke..."you mean we have to work EVERY Thursday!!" Pilots are never satisfied. But this deal, if true, passes easily. Watch and see.

In the past and on other blogboards, I've seen much greater "negativity" on agreements that eventually passed by 65+%.
This board and issue seems to be pretty evenly split...probably passes comfortably...not the slightest bit scientific...good luck.
