If we got that rate, and -as you say- the DAL 767s won't be in the same solar system as UPS's, how do you then justify paying the 76 UPS+ when it would put our 777s out somewhere with Voyager? The 777s deserve to be way out of whack relative to everyone else? Bullsqueeze. If they do, so does everyone else.
The point is, you are cherrypicking a contract that is vastly different than ours. Tell me how you plan on rectifying that.

I don't have to rectify a dang thing to you. I never said to pay more than UPS, (as you say?)I was just saying that the alluded to 28% pay rate isn't in the same solar system. I was making a comparison
Don't put your words into my comments and cherry pick what you want.

This is the problem. We are hearing two distinctively different versions coming from the MEC:
From the Dirty Dozen - The company has barely moved of its inadequate last offer. If this is the case No brainer, keep at it and come back when we get a better offer.
From the Magnificent 7 - We are within reach of a very good deal but internal squabbles may prevent us from bringing it to fruition.
Also a No brainer - Bring us a TA and let the Pilots decide.
The problem is both of these stories can not be true. My bet is its probably somewhere in between.

I agree that we are in a sweet spot. I agree that we shouldn't waste it, as those of us who were here for the bad times know that those sweet spots don't last forever. Ask the APA in 2001.
It seems that the MEC is (against the advice of the NC, the administration, the attorneys, and the NMB) passing up a great deal to try for the perfect deal (which doesn't exist).
If we waste this fleeting opportunity, we'll have nobody to blame but ourselves.
