Ok the MEC knows what's in the TA, it's Tue, so why is it taking so long to put out the highlights?

There are no highlights when it's a concessionary contract.

They won't put it out unless the MEC votes in favor of sending it to the pilots for ratification. They just started briefing yesterday. Would you prefer that they rush through that decision? I for one would like them to read the language very carefully before they vote. There can be a big difference between bullet point concepts and actual enforceable language.

Look, all along the MEC & NC keep each other briefed. The MEC KNOWS what is in there. I agree they need to read it over and check for enforceable language as you say. Maybe it's the ALPA attorney who is reading it over. If so, hope he/she doesn't give the MEC the same old ALPA crap, "this is the best you're going to get". Sure, we get to vote but most pilots don't read it for one reason or another, mostly laziness. We'll see, hopefully soon.

The MECs have decided to present the TA to the pilots . Roadshows begin in early December.

As Shelby (from that TV show) would say, "here we go"! :uzi:

I happen to have video from the last MEC roadshow. It really did not sway many pilots in favor of voting yes.

I just hope the briefing didn't go along the lines of "We have to pass it to find out what's in it"
