Saying this is a high turn out in Mesa standards doesnt make it less of a disgrace. The contract turn out and MEC postion vote were also a disgrace.
Not saying the outcome would have been any different, but out of the people who did vote it came down to roughly 50 people voting yes over no.
I respect the outcome but now we see what happens in Dec.

I agree with each pilot having a vote, and I'm not saying this SHOULD or SHOULD NOT have passed... but some of the logic on these message boards (for or against) is pretty illogical.

Couldnt said FO just go apply for the job anyway and take the VLOA for the next 3 months? Keeps all of his/her benefits and seniority, secures a new job (not at the end of the line for employment) PLUS gets 20 hours of pay. Why not just do that?? Seems like win for anyone who was wanting to look for a seasonal job anyway... plus if one doesnt pan out, they still have this one for the next 3 months if they want to make 68 hours instead of the 20 VLOA hours.

So if pilots get furloughed in January, you're suggesting that this did nothing positive for those pilots by keeping them on 3 more months? I'm not following on that logic. Sure they may be furloughed if it doesnt get passed again (by either side), but how does that rationalize whether or not it was worth passing this time?

I voted yes in hopes that the MOU acts as a bridge between Oct 1 and a PSP extension/ industry recovery. We don’t need a full recovery, maybe just a return to %75 ish. Barring a miracle, no PSP extension is coming anytime soon. If this MOU needs an extension beyond December, I don’t see it getting passed again.

Not that you we’re asking me but I’m going to put my two cents in....for me it’s QOL...sitting ready 4 days in a row, not flying making peanuts. Away from the family not flying, not working towards anything. This is just my situation/mindset anyway....just doesn’t add up. I can fly corporate and QOL goes way up. It has just taken a toll....I’ll fall on the “grenade” to save a job for someone else.
