We still have some here who say that TA1 was a better deal.

I’d expect the same. It’s just natural.

That works both ways, just got look at chitchat.

This TA sets Purple further back than at any time in history from our peers at the pax carriers.

I had no idea our union was so feckless, and that a large part of our pilot group was so ambivalent towards maintaining our status as well compensated and well treated relative to the rest of this industry.

You mean he came here because he heard FO's were making well over $350k per year. Our pay rates were behind and the company was able to wet lease just like they can with the TA. He came here with what you call industry worst work rules. Now, 2.5 years later, he is still here. Why?

And absolutely terrible at math.
Looks like it took United 9 months
Their 94% NO vote closed on Nov 2, 2022
They released an AIP today and plan to have full language TA in next 3 weeks

No poking around - Giddy Up!!
