i can answer that easy. new administartion coming in soon. if delta keeps us growing without a contract they stand a bigger chance of having flight disruptions when we go on strike a la comair. we are number 1 right now on the mediators desk since champion has gone under. as soon as the new administration comes in there is a chance that we could be released, plus by the time he got into office and got things going we would be without a contract for 4 years.
