On a more serious note, I copied his questions that he said that Art hasn't gotten back to him on and I emailed them directly to him. He said he would be responding and getting back to him.
I hope he lets us know the response. If Art doesn't respond, then there is a problem and the NC isn't doing as they say they are. But given the amount of FAQ's that are coming out, seems like they are responding.
I suspect our music fan (his APC handle) is full of sh$t and never even emailed the NC and just gets some sort of thrill scaring people about crazy-a$$ scope scenarios that wouldn't make it out of business 101, let alone an airline business plan.
Yeah I'm being a d$ck but I get sick and tired of people pretending they are the experts and maliciously spreading false info to satisfy their own egos.
I heard the NC and our attorney say loud and clear the NMB would not entertain scope scenarios that were not realistic and based in fact. They helped us tighten up our scope in a meaningful and profound way to give us additional protections. How about we say thanks and move on.
Crafting up these doomsday scenarios just to scare the sh$t out of people is ridiculous and is without merit.
Dude.. stop. You picked the wrong guy to go after. First off, he is one of the most consistent and honest guys on this entire forum. Second, and more importantly, he has impeccable taste in music.
As I said before... there are plenty of legitimate selling points for this TA. No need to belittle QOTSAs legitimate concerns about scope. You can certainly argue whether or not it makes strategic sense to draw a line in the sand on scope as QOTSA has, but you cannot seriously toss out his concerns as trivial or conspiratorial.
