Hey Kristie,

I thought the deal for a 14% cut was a cave by management to get the pilots to NOT strike, since it doesn't equal the $300+ million that they're looking for. Now I know differently. Gotta love ALPA, huh?
Over here at ASA, things are not good, since mgmt. decided to shelve most of the contract that has been hashed out for the last 3 years because they needed to do a "cost analysis" since the purchase of ASA, I mean Skyeast, by Skywest. So now the MEC has proposed a vote of no confidence, with a proposed strike ballot to be coming out soon. I hope our guys do the job and show them that they will stike if they have to.

We were hoping that the Delta pilots would really send a message with a strike, but that's not going to happen. I was joking around that my DH wouldn't be doing much flying if the Delta pax weren't being brough into ATL in the first place!

Ah, well, we'll see what January brings.
