The MEC needs to utilize this petition to it's advantage. This is a major tool in the "warchest" for our NC. I have never in my 9 year career here seen so much support from both sides on one issue. This can be the lightning rod that brings many of us together. You get what you negotiate, apparently a lot of pilots are tired of waiting and want to be made whole. This is not a divisive issue, some of you are trying to make it divisive. It is well known I have no great feelings for the same NC as last time, but this petition is getting many of us onboard to support them. Lanyards, and bag tags are cute, forcing a financial obligation and good faith negotiating by the majority will of your pilot group, well thats a revolution.

Whatever it takes! Right?

I agree, if this was such a divisive issue then multiple current Spirit ALPA committee chairmen wouldn't have signed the petition. Do I need to list them here to be believed?
