Everyone is voting on their own interests, it is quite obvious how well FedEx has split the pilot group. However, this time, I don't think there are enough senior people left to make the 51% that is needed.
Fedex split the group? Seems like a lot of extra flying was done during negotiations, nice fat W2's at the end of the year for many. The incestuous greed of this pilot group is what has split the pilot group. Now people are whining here about a pos TA when they did nothing to help the union during negotiations.
And DE Shaw, I'm still laughing at the fear some people have about DE Shaw. They hold less than 1% of FedEx and had reduced their share holdings from last year. God help you people with several more TAs in your career, you'll be miserable your whole life.
