I believe it was AA that won in court against their pilot group based on historic open time pickup prior to negotiations.
It shouldn't have to be said with regard to helping the company out during negotiations but with the lack of unity within this pilot group apparently it does. Everyone has their justifications. At the end of the days the *****s will ***** and the lazy will be lazy. And the company will laugh and laugh, all the way to the bank as the pilot group fights each other.
