AIR WISCONSIN SAVED USAIRWAYS!~ That's what all their pilots seem to think...... uke:

Well, they did give them 125 million dollars when they were in dire need for cash. I'm not saying that they saved them, but they likely did help.

The results of throwing our Section 6 bargaining for Interest Based Bargaining (IBB) has produced an agreement that has proven far less taxing on us, the company and most importantly, our Owners.

It might be an example for Doug and Company but I doubt it. It's far too much easier to use "old school" techniques.

We did use IBB about seven years ago. We soon discovered that it stood for "I've Been Bamboozled".

I guess the US east guy's forgot that their "career expectation" was 5 Day until liquidation, but they don't like to hear the facts, BTW Jack Stephan are you done putting road block in the PDT flow Thru?
Don't you have bigger fish to fry? like fighting a binding arbitration? No worries You'll have a new arbitration from the PDT flow thru soon... may be you'll have to throw out USAPA then to get out of it...

You assume that all 121 pilots commute. The truth is the majority don't.

I only spent 45 minutes in the back of a 121 airliner this month. Can you say the same?

I'd say 45-50% of the pilots I fly with commute. I know the union says otherwise, but you have to realize almost none of them commute and 80% of them are full of sh!t.

Hey Oly,
What's the scoop on Stephan's block? I don't think I had anything about this...... or was he the guy that made the comment, "give us back our retirement and we'll give you flow thru". WTF? Why hold something like that over the PDT pilot group as if they had something to do with the loss of mainline retirements.....
Please understand I'm not trying to start a war here, I'm just curious what he has specifically done.

I wouldn't expect it to work at most airlines.

I guess that NJA management has more to lose with unhappy pilots (then Owners) than Doug. I already commented on the advantage of having a management team that is focused on more than the next merger/transaction/golden parachute.

Got the call in between flights this morning, pretty jazzed that there was not one of those long waits for it!
:beer:

Congratulations!

Hey, did G.G. interview you?

[zasca]

I thought it was "no scope relief without bringing back pensions" in regards to PDT. Not flow through?

Actually she did if I didn't cross up names.... I know I met her the other day.

You are right Zasca that was the actual quote.
I got it mixed up, I guess.

get2flyin= retarded!
But don't let facts get in the way of you westholes and your (lack of) thinking!

Let me see. My company brought hundreds of retiring pilots and attrition, and you think you're enitled to it?
Dream on moron!

Wow, lady...did I catch you at a bad time of the month? If you can't argue logic, go straight to name calling. That's what I like about you Easties. You're so predictable. When your period is over, maybe we can talk like adults.

I feel bad for your husband, having to deal with you when you're like this....take a freakin' midol
