Why can't your MEC go over the best sections of other ALPA contracts (XJT, AWAC, Eagle, ASA, Comair) and start from there? Now I have not seen it yet so I will hold back my final opinion but if it is not on par with the companies listed above you guys will lose a lot of respect with us. You do the same job we do, there is no reason why this TA shouldn't meet or exceed any of the other top regional contracts. Why on earth would you agree to anything less? You guys are going to set the benchmark for the new round of regional contracts. You have all the negotiating power you will ever get in your careers with the recent senate hearings, please raise the bar so the rest of us do not have to start negotiating from a lower level.
