Because the results of any negotiations on economic and job-protection issues (ie. money and scope) can lead to changes in the Company's stock performance, it is a requirement to sign NDA's that would prevent insider trading or other other potentially illegal scenarios.

On top of that, there are committee of the MEC that do receive confidential information from the company (routes, a/c orders, market projections) that the MEC uses to enforce applicable sections of the PWA.

I prefer having the Company's internal data plus less accurate external data to derive compliance and enforcement, wouldn't you?

Yeah, it's great that the company shares all that top secret info to some of the guys on our MEC, that's why I voted Yes to the last one, because I was told by some of those guys on the MEC that we would NEVER SEE those two 3% raises, because Richard had something up his sleeve and we'll be able to reopen our contract and get MORE, well before Jan. of 2014...

Well??

We're Waiting...

I wasn't asking why, I just wanted to know if it were the case. I'm not complaining about it, so to answer your question: Absolutely.

I think you might be missing where I was going.

Your telling me I don't know how to copy and paste? You type something. I click the quote button. Simple. You had a few pages basically saying the same thing. How is that a mischaracterization? That's right, it's not. Your making crap up because I'm right. Mister high and mighty 747 captain can't admit when he's wrong. CRM is great. I can tell you your wrong and take the plane from you. Enjoy the golf game, seriously. I hope you play a great game and relax while on the course. Come back with a level head and accept the fact that you are not God. It's funny how defensive you get when pages and pages of posts by different people tell you your full of it.

Unfortunately, I am afraid it will be a game of whack-a-mole. Even when they lose, another will pop up as long as guys like Carl are around.

Hi guys, A quick question on picking up a trip from open time. Does swap with the pot allow you to pick up the trip right away or is it processed like a white slip at different times during day? In other words what is the advantage of swap with the pot over just using a white slip? Thanks. I normally just fly what I bid.

Swap with the pot is just that, you swap one of your trips with the trip in the pot. A white slip is a straight pick up. You pick up a trip in addition to whats on your line.

White slips are processed before swap with the pot. The processing times are published in the contract. (I don't remember the exact times) Nothing is right away.
