The end result is the same, but that should explain why the MEC isn’t taking a cut. Do we really want the MEC to do a lesser portion of their normal duties?!
I’m sure the vocal NO voters would like that, but I still think that explains why the MEC isn’t taking a cut.
Thousands upon thousands of other pilots would also like the option to work as much as they always do. With a no vote, at least there would be thousands that do have that option (an option afforded to them by seniority, a basic tenet of every CBA).
