So Eagles closes today and now RAH is extending a week? Are these ballot issues confirmed? Or are they playing games trying to get people to change their votes.

Where are all those PSA guys stating that we didn't have the intestinal fortitude to vote this down. Didn't someone say we were hiding behind our MEC?

Thanks Eagle. 4300 pilots at ASA/XJT stand with you. 7000 pilots are saying no more! Our own MEC said it couldn't happen!

The RAH vote appears to have been pushed back a week. It's such a bloody mess with the ballots. A bunch of people don't have them, an even bigger bunch got someone elses credentials, and they are allowing for votes to be changed until the last day of voting. Talk about it all being done legitimately.

I'll be very surprised if we are not at least an 85% firm NO vote. Ran across one pilot who wasn't sure, but was leaning to NO. One week to go.

Once again, congratulations on standing together and standing firm.
This delay is interesting, but I think it works in the pilot's favor. The original date was set before eagle set theirs on the same day. Obviously eagle didn't want rah's vote to influence their vote. But with eagle voting 70% no, the rah guys still teetering on the fence should be easily swayed to a no, and lots of yes voters changing to no. Honestly I'd be surprised at anything less than 75-80% no after these results.
The tide has turned.

What now needs to happen if alpa can start putting pressure on the likes of Mesa so that they are not given more flying as a punishment for standing up against poor pay. Congrats and good luck I know it was hard to do what you believe was right risking your income and career progression

Didn't the Mesa MEC say it was every man for himself? If true these guys are complete d-bags.
