Default Atlanta Roadshow

Good turnout at the roadshow today.

Before this roadshow I thought the TA had about a 90% chance of passing memrat.

I was wrong. Its 100%. The crowd's reaction to the presentation left no doubt.

Ratification is a formality at this point. We have a new contract.

I agree, I have only flown with one pilot who was a no vote and he was pretty much anti everything having to do with Delta.

LOL I'm not doubting that it will MEMRAT, but there is zero chance it gets over 90%.

He was saying 100% chance it passes MEMRAT, not by 90 or 100%.

His reaction is quite telling given how both of us walked out of the presentation of the failed TA last year.

I'll put my money on 75/25 pass.

90-100% are the odds it passes, not the percentage voting in favor.

I'd put that number at 70-30.

Some pilots will carefully consider the TA and decide they can't support it. Maybe 10% in that category.
Another 20% are just anti-ALPA and would vote against free beer if the idea came from ALPA.

Ah, right.

But we can still bet on it beating the spread?

Ya'll don't expect us to believe Deltoids would vote down 2 TAs in a row? Hell would freeze first

C2K now this contract is it safe to say John Malone is one of the greatest if not the greatest union leaders of this generation?

If there was a Union Hall of Fame he would be in it first ballot IMO.
