I was trying to figure out why the prep e-mail leaking to the group using his LEC blast emails… and now I have a hunch why. The NO vote opens up the bigger opportunity he really wanted… a platform to speak to the entire pilot group and not just the small DEN pilot group. He is definitely trying to get some street creds for something else bigger then the LEC? This was cut/pasted from the MEC email…

"When the acceptance vote is less than unanimous and at the request of any MEC member on the opposing side of the acceptance vote, pro and con statements with rebuttals will be prepared by MEC members, or their designees, and mailed to the pilots within 15 days of the MEC vote."
