So does anyone have insight about the NC’s background?

Yes I’m calling their baby ugly and I don’t think this agreement should have ever seen the light of day. However, there’s no real value making it personal, still I think it’d be valuable to the pilot group to really know more about them.

At CAL, pilots used to fly to Europe and then deadhead back to base in the middle seat in coach during the same duty period. It’s hard to believe, but that was a product of negotiations. Maybe those guys are still alive and well?
