Are you there today, What? Was anything public or usual executive session?

It will come down to a pilot vote. Thats what I have been told.

What is going to a pilot vote? Not the proposal the company made unless it was agreed to late last night. We are going to counter the proposal and today they are working on such, so I am not sure what you are going to vote on because there is no TA, the eagle pilots are just responding to management proposal. And no I don't know what's in it as it is likely being held in executive session and it's currently being built.

I am not there today, most of yesterday was held open. The company explanation of their proposal was held in executive session as the company didn't want numbers in the open and the MEC wants numbers.

the 12/4 cap is non negotiable. Company won't budge there.

You can thank brown streak for that. They stole 30 airplanes from your original fleet plan. Now AE is only left with 60 rj's vs 90... wow

On the bright side I've heard the deal being negotiated now is light years better and improved over that TRASH brown streak accepted.

Heard management has their eye on Mesa after a no vote at L-AE.

How did you hear about the deal since the MEC is currently building it after deciding to counter the company yesterday and listening to a briefing from the company last night. WoW that deal was built quickly, I don't even think that the MEC has presented a counter to the company just yet.

Management said that they are not afraid to make a deal with Mesa and that if we decide to not negotiate with them they are willing to place our CRJs on other CRJ operators. They also brought the example that PDT is an unique circumstance that their airplanes are being phased out and they are "willing to play". Also AWAC has a contract expiring and they are full of 50 seaters.

I am sure that if we say no they will look at other options to prove their points and see if someone else bites as everyone is scared of being "Comaried".

unless parker owns mesa, he is going to have to give hard guaranteed numbers of profits to the mesa board of directors because they are the ones going to have to go after the pilots, not parker. so I seriously doubt it.
