The MEC has basically said that they have hit a wall. For whatever reason ATW isn’t paying more. Maybe they don’t have it or maybe they don’t want to. In their opinion continuing to bargain for however much longer would not produce anywhere close to what the pilot group wants. So take this money or not. That seems to be the bottom line. And before you say we will just strike, you might want to look at how that is going for Frontier.
Also, as it always seem to go like this, pilots are mad at whatever MEC’s do. They are mad when the mec don’t let pilots decide and they are mad when the mec do let the pilots decide.
