Carl

The MEC (collectively the various base LEC status reps) approve what the Negotiating Committee brings back. If it is approved by the MEC, then it is passed on to the pilots who choose to ratify.

From the Delta Pilot's Policy Manual, page 54:

Collective bargaining agreements that have been approved by the MEC and result from negotiations undertaken pursuant to both Section 28 of the PWA and Section 6 of the Railway Labor Act that both resolve all Section 6 issues and conclude Section 6 negotiations shall be subject to membership ratification. All other agreements shall be subject only to MEC ratification unless the MEC determines that an agreement should be subject to membership ratification.


This argument of "approve" or "ratify" is one of semantics, not of substance.

I agree. But then why did you make a big deal about it by saying this?:

And why did tsquare make a fool out of himself by saying...oh wait, it was tsquare.

Come on guys, most of this between Carl and everyone else is BORING.


How about some rumors? Speculation on 717/A319s? Space Shuttles or Sonic Cruisers? Anything is better than arguing with Carl.

Comic Con update. Went down for an AM run at 4:30 and the lobby was full (and I do mean full) of Furries. I guess that's kind of the late night comic con crown. Looked like a discovery channel show on acid. Creepy.
