My naive opinion is that he knows he’s got an opportunity to salvage some of his reputation and legacy, and he certainly does.
What he does with that opportunity will be interesting to see. Hoping for the best. Expecting the usual.

On a different note, what is with the C16 vice chair's picture on the DALPA site? I get wanting privacy, but don't you sort of give that up when you volunteer to be a rep?

Two very similar posts on chit chat in recent days that seem to corroborate the direction this is going:
NYC CA:
“Take it or leave it. Has anyone else heard anything?
Short term 2.5 year contract extension.
Pay raises (upwards of 20% over the extension)
July 1, 2026
Jan 1, 2027
Jan 1, 2028
DC contribution increase
United DH rules
Vacation pay increase
Training pay increase
Some unidentified other increased benefits.
Ed is absolutely not happy and is willing to make this deal to streamline the coverage process to get reliability back in the operation. He wants it done ASAP.”
SLC CA:
“word on the street is 20%. 2.5 year deal 8/6/6.some add to DC, UA DH rules and a few minor things. Essentially give up 23M7, dunno status of PBdays, maybe a PS commute clause. Seems light to me seeing pilots are holding all the cards”

The "UA DH rules" is what makes me doubt this 'rumor', however. I'll be shocked if Ed goes for that, and even more shocked if the FA's wouldn't riot over it.
Again, this is a trial balloon.

Maybe (and I'd be all for it, personally. But I understand why some are not...). Or, maybe there is just no Auto-Accept for OOBWS - maybe it just goes to one window like QS. One call to rule them all...
