Attempt 1 to temporarily fill LEC 26 with old guard failed as 2/3 elected reps took the interim seats. I argue this week was attempt 2 to get those seats filled with old guard, and any others would be a bonus.

IF (and that’s a big if, I get it) the senior/older retirement crowd is pushing for a TA1.1 that still improves retirement at the expense of QOL, pay and scope (what TA1 did - pitting senior vs junior), they have two deadlines approaching that make it difficult to forward another concessionary contract. The first deadline is 1 Mar, when LEC 26 elected reps take their permanent seats. The second deadline is when PM is replaced. Cancellation of Tuesday’s meeting effectively closed the door for the MEC to send TA1.1 to the pilot group before 1 Mar.

Tell me where I screwed up that math 🤷🏼‍♂️
