Very informative. Glad I made the trip!
Not only was the large turnout a relief to Webb, Huggins, Baker, Chimenti (and his cohorts), Reed and Gandy ... every other ALPA Committee "worker bee" got a fresh shot of adrenaline when that many pilots, spouses, kids and friends came out of the woodwork to shout,

"TWO YEARS IS LONG ENOUGH ... FEDEX HAS FAILED TO DELIVER ... WE'RE READY FOR THE CONTRACT WE'VE EARNED!"

Concur completely. I don't need to be "told what to do." I can see the writing on the wall for myself -- I'LL GO ABOVE AND BEYOND AGAIN *ONLY* WHEN MANAGEMENT PROFFERS A LEGITIMATE DEAL VIA THE NEGOTIATING COMMITTEE. I've made my choice: No draft, no volunteer, no vacation buy-back, no more and no less than 100.0% until we have a new contract!!

BZ to the rally attendees and organizers!
