It’s pretty common for management to have ALPA sign a letter agreeing to support the TA. Don’t let that sway your decision. In the past, the union would put out a pro/con paper but now with agreements to support a TA, those don’t come out anymore. You guys have a tough decision. It’s a substantial improvement, but is it enough. Good luck with your decisions.
At Delta, our MEC Chairman resigned after the failure of TA1 (he would have been ridden out of town on a rail if he hadn’t) so we had to elect another one before reengaging the company and we still had a much better TA in 6 months.
