The problem is with section 6, we are on our own. In mediation for the 2005 CBA, the mediator parked us in Abeyance saying we were being unreasonable. However, back then we had leverage as RTS would not take us to court for work actions.

For the 2015 CBA, same thing, mediator parked us. The mediator looks at us as a 135 airline and payscales for that industry. They don't care about 121. However, we had leverage with our picketing. Going forward, we may have to use this again but it does come with risk. How will Berkshire handle if we picket in Omaha again next year? It is all a balancing act.
