All I'm saying is vote how you want, but realize that even if this TA fails, which I don't think it will, section 1 will probably remain. I would guess that the only changes we would receive would come to section 3 and in the end it would be at a financial loss.

1. Define regional flying? If you mean outsource to the lowest bidder in a CPA in any type of plane. It doesn’t have to be a cry from Dallas to Shreveport. It could be a CSeries from LA to ATL. Yes I think it will happen at some point. If allowed by scope
Traditional codeshare- yes I think it’s highly likely
2. I have no idea. I do know I would make it known to the NC what my priorities are.

I think debate is healthy and good and now that you've gotten your questions answered, I don't think there is anything wrong with you espousing your views for or against the scope TA.
Because now they are based on actual facts and on the merits of the proposal.

It’s like people want their bonus and pay raise so bad they don’t even care if it costs them their job one day. Without scope and LTD you have nothing. A job, not a career.
