Please explain in more detail.

It appears you're hanging an 18 month wait on a new contract on "the dirty dozen."

I'm not in the know in any way, shape, fashion, or form. I'd just like to get answers from one who continually seems to know so much more than us line swine peasants. Can you fill me in (STS) on the details that would prove your assertion above to be correct?

We will find out soon at the C44 Meeting how ATL pilots feel about their MEC Election votes.

Personally I am in favor of recall and will vote accordingly

Do you believe your views represent a majority of pilots?

Just out of curiosity, and it's ok if you are (not judging), but will you be accepting any FPL position in Bartels' committee structure?

Profit sharing changes were NEVER an Agreement In Principle. Are you implying that?

So what? He changed his mind after being chair for a little over a year. Bartels has been in a union position for about 19 years straight. I don't get the double standard here.

Our new MEC chairman is like a sleazy divorce attorney. He never produces a good outcome but sows lots of hate and dicontent along the way! That keeps the billable hours up until the savings accounts are empty.

I actually hope that we can come together, support, and rally behind the new MEC Chairman.

Do you have any factual information to support your claim?

Please, produce it.

And who cares about getting the same contract in the spring? Its actually better now because we get the pay retro to Jan and none of none of the concessions for almost the whole year.

Not to mention that all the offers from the company up until now had greater concessions in scope and other sections. The worst "the 12" can be blamed for is a couple months at most, and with full retro who cares. And they deserve credit for a better contract than would have happened without them.
