United needs you guys desperately. Don't believe the management trolls who come on here and say "it'll be years until you get another offer." That's not the way it works these days.
At another regional, the mechanics got a really $hi- offer, voted it down, and had another offer with leading pay (for a regional) a couple months later...
Again, this industry isn't what it used to be.

What lead to this TA even being presented to your pilot group? With general conditions and your situation in particular (50 seaters that UA needs), that in & of itself seems really odd.
I’m even more surprised that it only failed by 3 votes. What led almost 50% of the pilot group to vote ‘yes’?
I don’t mean to be a jackwad in asking these questions, but I’m truly at a loss in how this played out as it did so I appreciate anyone who’s good enough to take the time to explain a bit.

Also I hear the former MEC leader CS stepped down months ago, yet he’s still on ALPA leave.... why is he on ALPA leave if he stepped down?

A better question would be “why don’t we have a negotiating committee yet and why do we keep getting emails reminding us that we’re looking for a membership committee chairman when THE NEGOTIATING COMMITTEE IS STILL EMPTY.”
