Well, now that it appears fences will be in place at least until I've upgraded on the CRJ, I will openly welcome any Colgan pilot to be a part of our union...
I'm pretty sure this means all Colgan pilots will eventually have to become ALPA, since you can't exactly merge non-union pilots with union ones. Right?
NOW LET'S GET A CONTRACT AND SOME GOOD 900 RATES BOYS!!!!

You guys still have another vote coming soon. Do whatever you can to ensure that the Colgan pilot group sends a clear message to management, such as we did with our 99.3% in favor to walk if needed. It would be nice if both pilot groups could take on management together in the future to accomplish all our goals.

Wonder how this will affect us over at ExpressJet. Continental just started replacing our flying with Colgan in EWR. Hopefully this will end up costing Continental more money than if they would've stuck with us.

Time for all UNION carriers to set minimum contract goals so the majors will be hard pressed to play one regional against another. Thank you for help setting the bar. Hopefully we here at 9E will follow suite and continue the push to create a better QOL at all regionals.

The arbitrator’s decision is final and binding in most contracts. Both sides must accept the decision and cannot appeal to any higher step in the grievance procedure. An exception to this rule is noted when one side feels strongly that the arbitrator did more than interpret facts and rights under a contract or set of working conditions. (Contracts often say clearly that the arbitrator cannot change contract language or work rules.) In this situation, the loser may go to court to try to overturn the arbitrator’s decision.
Not saying it will happen but i doubt PNCL Corp will just say "OK, you win" given how stubborn they have been.

True.
The thing is though, if the company was going to file it in a court of law, they would have done so already. It was known a few weeks ago that it was going to be in favor of ALPA, the company would have contested it immediately.
IMO

I am no legal expert but I do know this in respect to union arbitration.
