Trying to bribe us with the present business cycle is ridiculous. And there is no way more large RJ's is really going to cause an airline this massive to grow. If we fall for that one we are even dumber than they think we are.

But a NO vote for ALPA is also a NO vote for the company. The company LOVES ALPA. Voting for another union is a double smack.

The difference is 4000+ pilots took the time to fill out a card and actually send it in. That shows displeasure, at least. So, throw in a weak TA and the sell game along with it, and that may actually push it over the edge.

OK donning my tin foil conspiracy cap for this but it is an honest question. Who tallies the votes on these contracts? Is there an independent real time audit to make sure there is no "tom foolry" if you know what I mean? Can we get some non ALPA contract selling guys in to verify the numbers when this does come to a vote? Some of these votes in the past...everybody "voted no" and it passed. I hate to ask this but for piece of mind how does the process work? How can we "trust but VERIFY"?

I bet if we started a new thread here on APC (so it is easy to find for all); had one of the resident English gifted students write a generic letter that could be easily cut/copy/pasted/emailed; many letters would FLOOD our reps Inboxes this weekend!
They might get quite a few letters from other airline guys worried about a scope giveaway too!

Whereas we aren't falling for that junk anymore,
Whereas the total number of 76 seaters outsourced needs to shrink if anything,
Therefore be it resolved that you better not outsource more 76 seaters.
That's the Cliff's Notes version. Someone more wordy can buff it out to a couple pages.

I can't believe we are trying to figure out how much worse one section of our concessionary contract is going to be when submitted as a TA.
Just say that out loud a few times.

No more BS, no more fluff. I'm going to cut and paste this in a letter to my reps.
