Well played sir...Obviously, each merger committee is going to try and get the most that they can out of one of these deals or they aren't doing their jobs. However, I think Pinnacle's solution was more unrealistic and would have created far more problems within our pilot groups than it would have solved. Everyone knows, understands and respects the long battle you have had with PNCL mgt. to get your contact amended. Everyone also knows about the infighting that took place during the last vote for a TA over the signing bonus. Based on this last-second maneuvering that is going on, frankly I really don't who to really trust to give me the straight story...
