does anyone think this is true? i don't see anything about that anywhere in the highlights, or mentioned anywhere. they talk about "DOS", date of signing. does that mean when the aip was signed, or when a contract passes a vote of the pilots?
From what I’ve been told, and read, DOS refers to the date that the pilot group votes to approve the TA and the MEC chair signs it. There will be no back pay.
