Not necesarilly. The MEC and the company seem to be in agreement that we need even more large RJ lift at labor busting DCI. We very well may not have traded scope for pay...because we were hell bent on giving it up because we think its necessary. Best case it was a scope quid pro, although since labor never gets the full value of anything traded away, a portion of the value of more large RJ's won't come close to fixing all other Section 1 shortcomings, so it will be a good bit less than that anyway.

I can totally see our MEC agreeing to a scope sale prior to agreeing to pay.

The silly season is upon us.
We have no information and there's nothing we can do about this TA right now anyway so we end up arguing about trivia and taking cheap shots at each other.

Instead, why not watch the women's pole vault World Record?
For some reason, I find it very inspirational.

We have a TA? Or the reps have a TA to vote on?

My impression is the latter. Text message from communication committee about 10 minutes ago:

"TA has been reached. Chairmans letter to follow today with information. MEC is in session now."

and

"The Negotiating Committee has reached a TA with Delta mgmt, May 14. More to follow via email."
