Amerijet-pay and benefit raises
UAL Mechanics-just got a bridge TA with pay and benefit improvements as
well as job protections and returns of outsourced jobs
UPS Mechanics-just ratified, with the highest pay in the industry and no
cost medical
Atlas/Polar- 26% & 36% raises respectively. 20.1% profit sharing. And
growing like crazy
Omni- word is they're really close
Flight Options-pay and benefit gains

All that in the past two years? And for all that, they pay less in dues? Word is you guys have the same negotiator assigned to you that Atlas/Polar had. Let's face it, roadkill would have been more effective that Treichler, who negotiated...if you can call it that...the first contract. He's gone, they've cleaned the house in Washington and the track record is not too shabby...much to the dismay of some.
