I can't stand listening to guys on the line or the training center talking about what they hear is in the AIP/TA (to follow) when not one of us has seen anything in writing. I don't believe it, even if it was a case of verbal diarrhea from a union rep. Until I see it, I don't believe it.
That being said of course I have heard the $400 million rumor, but just saying that is seriously out of context as it relates to the rest of the TA. Is that just the cash value paid directly to pilots? Just maybe there is another (just throwing a figure out there...go ahead and start THIS rumor if you want now too) $600 million+ in stock equity for the pilots as well?
It's all BS until I myself see it on paper. Until then my pay is what it is. The crappy work rules I have now are what they are. Period. End of story.

Just make sure you consider the entire package before making your automatic no vote. I can't stand those single issue voters who are willing to accept a truck load of junk as long as they get their one issue satisfied. It's like with politics and the abortion debate.

I never voted up or down on only one single issue on any contract. I also never thought the world revolved around the wide body either.
There is so much mental masterbation on right now about a hypothetical retro issue for a TA that doesn't exist yet. One thing s a fact. The retro picture isn't going to get better for every month that passes.
