Flapsfail- your union is working very hard to get this deal done. If you think this is supposed to be an overnight success story I remind you who you work for. I'm unsure where you are based but in MEM you are given updates at least once a week- more often if there is news. I just sent one off early this morning on my layover. Mark Feb 19 as a big day- we get to finally get in front of the NMB. If you look at management and union labor tactics you will find that mgmt is right on track with dividing the pilot group to try and accomplish their goals. The company feels you are already overpaid on 1999 rates, the pilots voted in majority that the TA did not meet the needs and expectations for a contract. Your union is working every day (including some late nights and weekends) to get a deal together. There is NO desire to make this take a day longer than needed.
