Based on this survey and the polling questions I participated in, there is ZERO doubt they are pushing for a certain outcome.

After actually being involved in legitimate polling, I can tell you one thing... These guys are going to have their hands full at the table unless they do a lot of follow up polling that narrows the priorities. (Exclusive of the DB/DC issue)

Right now I bet 90 percent of the questions are being answered “extremely important.” When they start having to make a choice at the table of what is, or is not achievable, they are going to need to know what the real priorities of the pilot group are.

Better strap in, cause we are in for a long, long ride if this negotiaion hinges on a DB. Why? It is already a polarizing topic and I am afraid if a DB is part of the “as long as it takes” issue, we will not have the unity that is needed to push forward.
