Good question.
I’m satisfied. And while the company has promised for literally decades to abide by industry standard scope, they’ve bled us dry with a thousand little cuts. One of the most egregious is bringing on 175’s with a higher MGTOW of 89K pounds, making it truly capable of replacing every one of us. Our TA’s scope language allows them to keep flying nearly forty at this higher-than-industry-standard weight and is completely unacceptable. They’re being rewarded for their crooked labor practices and I cannot vote yes in good conscience.
