Bucking Bar, Every pilot I know after listening to the actual facts on the RJ grievance in the end feels it was handled well. I have listened to several hard core guys say how scope was sold out. Then the reasons behind the agreement were explained and they all said. Well I guess I would have done the same thing. You are aware that had we won the grievance in a slam dunk that at the time it was projected the company would have access to the additional airframes in less then a year anyway. Your aware that had we won it was still unlikely the arbitrator would have ordered the removal of the seats. Are you aware that with the agreement reached we get to use our interpretation of the disputed clause in all future RJ resets which is big long term. We also got a small amount of increase furlough protection. Given that we had almost no upside in winning the grievance and a huge downside in losing you believe DALPA miss handled it?
