It would just be rhetoric that would suffer issue fatigue well in before we needed our group to peak.
Exactly, The contract is not even amendable for 2 years and 3 months. Normally openers are exchanged 6 to 9 months before the amendable date. A lot can change between now and then. The contract survey to all pilots that will be used to build the opener will not even be mailed out for over a year.
