CD, this can be a tough crowd for a messenger with good news and a positive attitude. I've been in your shoes several times: Reporting about my husband's work with SU and their determination/talent to win a fair contract. (done) Sharing early news about UTC designed STEP making training better (done) Talking about the shift in attitudes as they started to happen (done) Explaining that IBB was good for the pilotgroup (done) Suggesting that the NJA pilots were ready to solo (coming soon to a shamrock near you... ) Each time I've been met with varying degrees of skepticism, but it seems to be waning as the pilots come to realize that I truly do have a front row seat because of my husband's leadership involvement. For what it's worth guys, nothing on CD's list surprises me; the joint committees have been busy. When you consider how far the total group has come since 2004, it's easy to be optimistic about the future. Surely the above mentioned track record has earned a show of faith in both Company and Union leadership? It should also serve as a reminder that the NJ pilots (and their families) are capable of making positive changes in the industry. I hope so because the next big challenge is almost upon you... You're ready for it! NJW
