IMHO. Sign it now. Codify no scope, work rules and fight to live another day in 2022.
This is my third first TA and the same “live to fight another day” worked out horribly for the other two. That mentality never works. 2022 will become 2025, 26. So we start negotiations with blowing our wad with things that should have been in the contract now? Mind blowingly retarded. The ELT will be spending what would be TA2 on champagne, caviar and tears of joy at our pilot group’s epidemic case of pilot battered syndrome.
