My understanding of the process that we entered into is that full Section 6 was never in play, unless we fail to ratify this TA. If we vote to reject this TA then full Section could possibly begin sometime in May. If we vote to reject this TA, I believe that either party "could" proffer for early Section 6. But either party could reject the proffer.

Full Section 6 would be lengthy in my opinion. I admire how organized the DALMEC and NC are with their package that they began their rejuvenated Section 6. I also think that it was a tactical error because this is still a negotiation and most of their pilots (that I know) view this package as a minimum that they'll vote to ratify. For example, their proposed pay rates 22%, 7%, and 7%. I think that when it's all said and done those increases will possibly be around the 15-17% and the following steps will see a similar adjustment. I guess what I'm trying to say is that if they shot for the moon, the horizon will be lower.

Another fun fact is that most financial indexes were level for the year of 2015. No growth, in fact a slight decline in the DOW and S&P. Just sayin!!!
