If this thing gets voted down I might think of running for something.

If it passes, I can't imagine a worse place to be than sitting across from Joanna's representative at the negotiating table when that time comes.

With TA 1.0, each conversation will start with "According to the contract, we have the authority to.........{insert whatever you think is unfair}..". It's got enough vague language to let them do whatever they want.

If it gets voted down, and you some how become a Rep. You'll be sitting across from Johanna and her reps. Assuming they even bother to come back to the table.

That's ok, it's a volunteer organization.

Those of us who are willing to fight FOR this pilot group, instead of WITH this pilot group, will step up to the plate and serve, no matter what the challenge is.

If this goes down our NC will have a new mandate, still hold new aircraft hostage and new hire pay will hurt staffing more every day. We vote yes, what cards will we be holding?

I’m with you. We hold nothing hostage except the ability to solidify our position. We also lack a contract (and the inheritant safety of that contract) for anywhere between 5 months and 3 years.

Not necessarily true. If JB needs a known cost structure in place to secure financing to purchase a new aircraft type, delaying the CBA could delay any aircraft deal.
