They are waaay off base if that's their position.
Anyone, and I mean anyone from any of the three groups, thinks they should vote one way or the other based on a single item is ludicrous. Everyone needs to calm down and wait to see the TA when it's ready for pilot group ratification. If everyone expects their little pet peeve item to be in the contract or it's a NO VOTE without looking at the bigger picture is simply screwing all of us. Evaluate the whole product and then make an informed decision....enough of the internet tough-guy syndrome, it's comical.
Cruise ... I would shake your hand if I knew you and was around you. Couldn't have said that better myself!!
There is not a single person in the soon-to-be 3000+ pilot group that is going to get EVERYTHING they want out of this TA. Unless of course you're just extremely easy going and don't give a darn about anything...
The payrates would be nice, the duty/trip rigs would be awesome, but every single pilot has to look at the bigger picture (THE CONTRACT AS A WHOLE) before voting yes/no.
I can only hope that in 8 days we get some good news and a TA to vote on!!
And here comes the cheese..... Let's stand together, 3000+ strong!
