Another reason to vote NO

WSJ front page-

retail food prices expected to rise 3.5% this year
so how is that $1.80 per diem for 10 years gonna cover your food 10 years from now when a meal at the airport cost $24 instead of the $10 it costs now.
No pay raises, 1% raise per year but not for 3 more years while inflation drives up your cost 6-7%
When a yes voter says but its not a paycut, how stupid can they be. If i cant buy the same amount of stuff for working the same hours thats a pay cut.

Didn't the training rep vote for the TA to be sent to the pilots?

The training rep and the chair of the training committee I'm sure are different people, and are certainly different positions.

No the instructor rep, MA, is for the TA. RK is against.

Aye, fight and you may die. Run, and you’ll live… at least a while. And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willin’ to trade ALL the days, from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they’ll never take… OUR FREEDOM!
