Have you watched the videos? If numbers don’t lie, than you’d be a yes vote.

By "numbers," are you referring to the analysis concluding that our 920M gain is offset by a cost savings to the company of a mere 12M per year?

So do you have better information than the ALPA financial analysts, lawyers, and the MEC and NC? Where is it?

Even if the numbers are way off as far as the cost savings to the company, it's still way less than our gain.

Ex... Rough numbers
12M year savings plus reduction of 200 pilots (alpa estimate) avg compensation top and bottom of the pay scale would be around 166/hr... Figure it out at 72 hours and you have 28.6M year...

Add them up and you get 40.6M post year cost savings to the company

5 year total savings ~ 203M

Gains in ta1 ~ 920M

Even if numbers are off substantially, there is no way its cost neutral.

Watch the TA Q &A video and watch the committee handle the question about how cost neutral this contract is. It is one of the first questions. That notion is shot down very clearly by several people. I believe the number was for every $1 gained by the company there was $14 gained in the TA. 14 to 1. Not even in the neighborhood of cost neutral

You do realize that this is a comparison of our current contract, not the TA we are voting on?

funny, i hear the work rule adjustments are yet to be determined how much it will save them. so 14 to 1 is an 'estimate'-----we've been beat up screwed so many times, even sued, we're now supposed to trust that they won't take complete advantage of us with these massive changes in scheduling? fly it and grieve it

Well yeah. Any rational person realizes there is a little give or take in there. So 12-16 to 1? It could go up or down but not much. They have a good estimate based on other companies experiences. Look, change is not easy. Some big changes are happening so I understand the skepticism. How do you think you will be taken advantage of?

No I wasn't but yeah I have heard stories and know what you are getting at. I can't really speak to that. There will be some disagreements in the language I am sure
