Home basing only goes away if the union agrees to it; a contractual matter doesn't get nullified simply because the opposite side of the table makes an offer, and any tentative agreement must be ratified by the pilot body, first.

If one faces any opponent, whether in negotiations or on the battlefield, with the assumption that the opponent is formidable and cannot be defeated, then one has already lost; one has surrendered. Negotiating in any environment is back and forth. Ground already held isn't given up except by choice.

Your comments remind me of chicken little's falling sky. The sky is not actually falling. Any insinuation to the contrary is not fact, but suggestion. Offers and counteroffers.

I haven't a bone in this chicken, and from your comments, neither do you. You seem very concerned about someone else's dinner plate, so far as to be talking yourself and others out of the job. It's almost as if you want to do the negotiating. No doubt the Omni pilot group has a qualified team to negotiate on their behalf, and no doubt the negotiating committee keeps their members informed. As an outsider, I'd be out of my depth to argue here for or against, as are you. You're talking about steering people away based on your perceptions of a company where you don't work. Your previous comments since you interviewed last year indicate that you waited in a pool, and accepted employment elsewhere. Why the fixation?

The sky isn't falling. Best not to sell the idea that it is, to others.
