I'm of the opinion that a failure of this TA means that we need to recall the MEC and NC and try again. I don't think this will take months, it'll take years to determine who the right people are, outline a strategy, and then negotiate what the pilot group wants from the company.
I'm not saying that this is the only path forward, and I'm not saying that it's impossible to send the current NC back in to continue to negotiate. I'm saying that I wouldn't want to see that happen after such a monumental failure as a rejected TA.
If the NC didn't get it right, we need new people, otherwise we're going to get the same result again.
You think that if it fails 45-55 the NC/MEC needs to go? Or 49-51? As I said before, a few things to sweeten it up to “market rate” that I outlined before will tip the scales tremendously. Easy to send them back to the table for a few items without the blow up/recall/restart.
