This will be a 'hot topic' that UAL will have to "spin" to it's investors in the months/yr to come if they choose to go "AMR Deuxieme Partie".....AKA "AMR Part Two".
BTW....IMO.....18+ months till we have a MEC voted/approved T/A for the Joint Pilot Group to view/vote.
I agree when they go to the banks for financing soon(5 billion dollars+/-) and explain how the synergies are going to roll in after SOC, the banks then start checking what management said and find out we are miles apart on new contract. This will be a problem, the banks will say UAL management you have 2 choices if you want money, 1) finish the pilot contract 2) your not going to like the interest rate were going to charge you.
I have no idea on when we will get a new contract though.
