That said we've received emails citing concerns over scope in light of the company's public statements. The Negotiation Committee does not have the authority on our own to go and create a new priority for the pilots. The MEC must decide if there's a priority that's changed or a new priority that's entered into negotiations. That's the MEC's purview we do not have the authority to do that. However, this does not preclude us from crafting ideas and solutions that would have an immediate impact, a positive impact on the lower half of seniority."

Because again, don't take this as we are discarding the concerns of the crew members who have been hired here since 2015. This system bid causes a lot of concerns and anxiety and it should from everybody that has been here since that point of time. Umm but what we want to say is that we have other items we can bring to the table that won't disrupt bargaining. That won't cause the company to pull sections that they've already TAd. We have other more immediate impact things that we can address with the company in light of this system bid, So system bid 23-01 where you're closing down one FDA domicile and two pilot bases, one specific MD11 base in ANC and the other in LA, so there's an awful a lot of senior pilots in those bases. Do you think for a minute that those senior pilots who have been on the MD11 for the past 25 years want to come train the 777 in Memphis? That's right, that's right they don't. So does it make sense to offer an avenue to let those pilots come off the top, and to retire early, maybe incentive and or remove obstacles to retirement in the discussion? Because the more pilots we can pull off the top of this mess right now that the company has created in 23-01, the better off the junior pilots will be. There are other things we can do in negotiations as well to deal directly with stalled career progression, or career progression that isn't materializing in the way that you'd imagined or envisioned two years ago or a year ago. And we've brought those issues to the table. So we have more actionable items that can be achieved quicker and in more sufficient manner to deal with the problems that a lot of pilots have identified, clearly identified through this corporate wide restructure, that we can deal with at the table. And we're going to move those issues forward. But we all have to kind of go together on this. We have to have the MEC support to continue to fight that fight and we have to stand together during this pretty trying time."

29mins: "The opinions matter. There's pilots concerned about, significantly concerned about scope and the direction this company has chosen to take in it's historic um network redesign. So we're not taking that lightly. We're not ignoring it. We're taking proactive measures to deal with it the best way we can that won't harm what we've put on the table."
