Tell me: how long did SWAPA wait to file for mediation after opening negotiations? Currently, what is the average time in mediation of cases before the NMB and what does that have to do with anything? How did the amount of time SWAPA waited to file for mediation impact our leverage this past cycle?

That one enormous mistake alone was likely irrecoverable. And it's because SWAPA and this pilot group do not, and have never, understood the RLA.
