Wait a second....
 

Didn't all the brain trusts say that APA was doomed today and that the judge would hammer them?

Judge postpones decision on AMR's labor deals - St. Louis Business Journal

Kind of makes you wonder if someone is waiting on something else before a decision is made :rolleyes:

Sure looks that way. That 1113C the APA refused is UGLY!

And the concessionary ask from the company just went down by about 50 million.

The 50 million reduction is the final agreement reached between the two parties. Its been ongoing over the last few weeks. It was not a last minute new position. The delay was sought because some members of the APA board want to firm up some of the language in several sections to clarify intent before a vote is held. They do not have actual contract language in hand. It looks like APA is going to except the companies last offer.
