Man even if it was done by the fall by the time we voted and got everything done we are going to be a bid or 2 or 3 past this one. Also I can't see this not being phased in since it's a first CBA. Money and that stuff sure but scheduling vacation/vacation bids all of that I doubt will happen day one.
It would be stupid to hire a bunch of guys when we don't even know what the final CBA would look like.
Before I get told I am sticking up for the company I am not. We need pilots and I don't think this bid is nearly enough but it's not proof we won't get a CBA soon.
