Perhaps he didn't like it, perhaps he did, but that's immaterial because he wasn't citing it as the reason for his "yes" vote. The prior poster explicitly cited "scope" as the source of his "no" vote. The intent of the question was, in my estimation, to determine whether the original poster actually understood the scope provisions of the TA and had valid reservations about it or if he was misleading about his true reasons for voting or advocating "no".

-80% limit of UAX flying to under 900 miles
-5% max hub-to-hub can be UAX
-76 seat limit to UAX
-As 76 seat aircraft rise, we must get more mainline narrowbody flying.
-76 seaters must be converted to 70 seaters if any pilot on the seniority list is furloughed (as of signing) plus other furlough protections.
-More strict UAX ASM limits
-More strict foreign code sharing

Its not the best, but I was impressed with the presentation the LCAL Scope negotiating rep gave at the EWR road show and since I was unfamiliar with the CAL scope previously he stated that this scope filled a lot of holes that were in that scope agreement.

Which he didn't. I had a guy tell me he voted no because he "doesn't like PBS".

looks like a big shakeup in DEN on the 320/737 Captains list that will trickle down to the FOs on both fleets there… as well as the 787FO list out of IAH… looks like most of the young 737 captains like that aircraft for the money.

I fully understand the scope section. It has been beat to death on here. The reason I brought it up is because it was stated that people voted no for other reasons than contract. I don't think many at LUAL realize what a blow it was to give the company more than 50 seats, especially to the jr lCAL pilots. We had fought for years to keep it. In fact we were offered no furloughs for relaxing our scope and said no. I understood that the 70 seaters were being forced on us with the merger, a huge pill to swallow, but could not get past adding almost 10% more lift to that and giving away 76 seats. That is especially tough as it is essentially the same plane as the 90 seater. I still think it was a mistake. My no vote had nothing to do with anything other then the merits of the contract.

Well, that guy was smart. PBS is just a blank check for the airline. CAL PBS SUX, and so does present day PBS.

I'm just saying that there are going to be some huge movements on the seniority lists in Den on the 737/320 and IAH on the 787… only so much room...

There were people that were opposed to eliminating the 737 Flight Engineer too .. it was job negative per the union.
