I believe most of the "Yes" voters who read the LOA were "scared" into voting "Yes" because they felt we didn't have any current leverage to get the company back to the table, and somehow believed the LOA would increase our "scope" and "lock up" the FDA flying for FEDEX pilots.

Great!

Glad to know this flying has now been "locked up" exclusively for us, by the strong scope verbiage in this LOA!

Now, I hope all of these folks lead us in using this "new leverage" in 2010 to fix the deficiencies in these FDAs....and don't want to hear anymore about the possibility the flying may be flown by "foreign pilots.", if we actually take a stand.

It will be very interesting to see the "new spin" generated during the next round of negogiations.
