If this LOA gets signed, then it's up to the pilots to decide if it works for them or not. It's an option for them. And my usually credible sources tell me having options is what a large number of pilots are asking for.
Yeah, I understand that Dera, but if you agree to this low ball number, there will never be anything better for the rest of us. This agreement is targeted at a VERY specific group of pilots here and to be honest, these same pilots probably would be OK even if we furloughed because they have options.
