Canceling was a BIG MISTAKE.
This is no different than North Korea playing multiple administrations to develop nuclear weapons, Iran playing the USA while they too develop nuclear weapons, and the North Vietnamese communist government stalling after bombing missions. They are just playing for time and/or a contract more favorable to them. B6ALPA's propensity to leave Hill 262 after getting a promise of a cease-fire is ill-advised. We'll simply have to spend more blood and treasure in the future at a time and place that is not optimal for victory. It's not everyday that investor meetings happen - this opportunity should never be wasted.
The USA dropped nuclear bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki after Japan wanted to surrender. The president decided to do it anyways to assure 100% victory for WWII and for the future of any wars. He wanted to show that nuclear war is so horrendous that no one would ever use nuclear weapons again. It worked. We fought the cold war without losing a life in war or using nuclear weapons. If we retreat now and play the Vietnam strategy, we will lose the war.
Peace through strength. The cost of respect is eternal vigilance.

Reading almost anything you post is a big mistake.
Yeah contract now and we don’t have a contract and JetBlue is greedy. Than JetBlue walks out to the media and says we just agreed to an agreement in principle a few days ago. I wonder who wins that PR war? Still fly SOP but doing that info pickett would just be a massive waste of money and time.
Again there is a set PROCEDURE for this. If it’s a dud of an AIP the pilot group will have a say if it were to get past the MEC.
With your love of military stuff and fun graphics I’m starting to think you seem a lot like Barney.

There is nothing preventing informational pickets. There is no court mandate or legal requirement. Standing down is a choice. Your process is too slow and ineffective. We have tried it your way and it has always failed.
