IF, and that's a big "if" he gets a deal prior to summer he will need quick action to approve the TA. This is battle field prep to rush the vote. The vetting process by 17K+ pilots has proven itself and he can't afford that kind of scrutiny. Last contract was the first one I recall were issues were addressed post TA. APC was key in the discovery of ERRATA and the acknowledgement of it by both the company and DALPA.
