What little remains is still above ATI in some rules but some are eroded to a level where they will catch up in the next round if not even exceed what the ABX proposed CBA is. Just look at the percentage of increase of the years of what has been publically posted on here...2%/yr for a long term agreement...yuk! (But it will pass a vote....)
No complete dog in the hunt, but wishing all ABX pilots the best. Amen to the devil in the details. I have some ideas of what the work rule concessions might entail, but won't speculate here. I am curious if TA settles some outstanding grievance/arbitration items, particularly the one on retirement. PM me if you don't wish to post on public message board.
