You are mistaken...AA did not go to the table with ANY payrates whatsoever. The scale you're referring to comes from the PDP, APA's alter ego living in fantasyland. I can come up with a wishlist as well, but if the PDP wishlist were to be presented at the table, the laughter would be heard across the country.

As much as pattern bargaining made gains for the pax guys in the last 20yrs, it will take at least that long before they get back to where they were, much less where they want to be.
