You are just parroting this "cost neutral" mantra that the DPA hung it's hat on, and have nothing to back it up. But I'll gladly eat crow if you can prove me wrong for the group as a whole.
The cost neutral mantra came from the earnings call from RA. I have no idea what the DPA is/was selling.
There is no data I can offer you, because I would be making it up, since the comparison event never happened(the voting down of contract C12K).
Also, there are not 5500 pilots who would be worse off, everyone is better off, because everyone received raises. However, it is a law of mathematics, that if you received larger gains than projected, then the costs came from somewhere else.
