Why should everyone in MEM walk with THEIR heads down? Even for flightinfo that is a moronic statement.

Wow! Great job guys! Great to know there's a pilot group out there with balls. Keep it up!

For your pleasure ******************************, Most of the MEM base should walk with their heads down

I am based in MEM...and I have absolutely no shame in how I voted! After talking with a lot of different people...it was more voting no down there than I even guessed

PCL guys... the way to get the best TA is not leave the heavy lifting to the MEC and NC. Enlist yourself and work for the TA your deserve. ALPA is only the broker after management realizes the grassroots movement is ironclad....

Great job guys! Now it's time to get the contract you truly deserve.

Gotta say I didn't think we'd do it. Thanks to all my 9E folks for doing what needed to be done. For what it's worth I have a whole new appreciation for what ASA did. We took a step in the right direction, but have a long way to go to help this Industry. Let's not sell our selves short. We're a young pilot group and the sky's the limit. Let's finish this thing!!!

Good job, but lets see how Delta responds to this news. In the age of musical regionals I wonder how long it will be until they announce a reduction of 9E's flying. By the time our TA went out to vote NWA had already leaned on us by having our own crews park the AVROS in the desert. The very night the TA results passed NWA announced the AVROS were coming back out of the desert. The regionals in the Delta family really have no leverage anymore and all are expendable!

I love hearing the support....will we still get it when we get increased flying because we're still the cheapest?

When ASA was deep in negotiations, we were told we could gain no new flying because our future costs were unknown and the uncertainty of a possible strike or job action. Not to mention, Skywest took our scheduled 900 deliveries. I'm not sure that the TA vote will be a positive thing for future flying.

If management really wants more flying they will come to an agreement.

From a business standpoint what is the motivation to dump your cheapest and best performing regional?

9E mang will say DL is pissed, really DL won't care. Mang will say no new flying from DL until this is resolved, In reality there will be no new flying either way

Good job, guys.
