When I first saw the detail of the proposed contract I thought 90% YES.

I never expected to see the 787 included within our existing contract. The fact that that is what is on offer, albeit with some changes to the way the pay is structured, would have almost universal approval. It seems though that you can't please all of the people all of the time, or even some of the time it seems.



It's obvious that the ones with the least to lose, those comfortably ensconced on four engined fleets in senior positions, are the most vocal critics. Hopefully there's enough of the junior guys who see this as a win, with a huge potential of loss if a NO gets up, will get it over the line.

With this in mind, I still think it will get through, hopefully comfortably. Anything more than 60% is a bonus, but I'd be surprised if it's less than that.
