Notice how much better the company has been treating the ERJ guys.
Wouldn’t expect anything much from these negotiations. They are in the perfect position to pass a turd sandwich of a contract.
I think the opposite is more likely. ASA is more desperate to save the place and thus more likely to vote in favor of a TA. Perhaps that is why the XJT MEC doesn’t want ASA involved, which would be understandable in my opinion.
But that’s pure speculation on my part. I don’t know the real reason.
