Many if there are any risks in disclosing the opening position it far outweighs the dangers posed by lack of transparency.
What you guys don't get is there would not be a need for any of this if we knew what the heck was going on.
And save the "call your rep" song and dance.
Yep. Basically what Justmeagain is saying is that this pilot group isn't smart enough to be involved in the negotiations.
I have little confidence in this NC. Remember these are the guys that just a few months ago told the pilot group that it was to expensive to fix slope.
There is no logical reason to hide the "ask" other than they are using the junior pilots to subsidize higher top end rates. These guys are smart they know whatever TA comes to a vote at this point will be voted in. I would be happy to admit that I am wrong if they publish the "ask" but at this point that's the only thing that makes sense to me.
BTW I don't give a crap who has an LEC, who signs a petition, any of it. I want to know that the union is working for all.
