More details of what really went on during the F9 auction.

[stratus72]

You sure tAlk like you're swa. So what if you're not. You challenged me in a smug a$$ way and you're running from it. I have the documents. Where are yours? I guess I missed you too on our jumpseat. You kiss our a$$ to get a seat then talk $hit on the site. See you later little runner.

Let it go, Bro. It is over. The more u bring this up, the more u seem like u r attached to it.

THis is Business. My opinion is, we were emotional. We should just wait and see the outcome.

Use your energy to fortify what we have and help better the TA.

CYA

It's amazing how many of you think SWA $hit doesn't stink. Yeah, I'm not only wrong but so are all the insiders, court documents, creditors board, etc... everyone is just making this stuff up. Meanwhile, SWA won't return any calls to these writers who want a comment on the outcome. SWA just acknowledges it wasn't meant to be. This backfired in their face and I don't believe for a second they are happy about it. They had all the inside information for almost a week before they had to either enter the auction or pull out. They went into this thinking they had it in the bag...and their dated arrogance didn't work. Yeah, the saw the light arlight. They saw that despite the union stand off, the board and everyone else wasn't impressed with their offer. Ooops, try to safe face now...let's just say we pulled out because of the unions. NOT! Many more aspect to this deal. Times are changing...get over it. Cling on to your fantasy world...SWA is likely approaching furloughs in the next 12-16 months...you guys never thought that would happen. You choked on your TA and now you're playing catch up. Hell, I know Republic isn't a sure thing....atleastI can admit that.

They probably pulled out of the deal because of pilots like you. Most of the F9 pilots would be great but there are a few like you. What a jerk.

I've heard Bedford is heading to Denver to have Town hall meetings with the Frontier employee groups. The guy sounds like a real leader.

Don't you start back at school this week? That should keep you busy for a while.

 

[walkthasky]

Wow! You make it too easy. There you go again wishing my furlough. I have never posted anything to show I am self absorbed. I think you must be looking in the mirror? Look, let's be friends and put a cute wink after you call out my furlough as u have been doing, cuz then it makes it right? Just like Ricky Bobby said, "with all due respect, kiss my a$$". I think you need a hug How bout them apples ?!

 

[FlyinGuy]

Stratus, Lay off the crack pipe. The deal is over! Who cares what happened. You are now part of a regional airline, so best of luck to you.

 

[Quiet Flight]

I gotta go with walkthasky on this one. It seems Stratus is in the minority at F9 as the people I know there are nothing if not top notch.

Dude, it's over. The deal is done. Doesn't matter what happened last week. All that matters is what happens from this point forward. I personally think you have a tougher road ahead of you as part of a regional airline having worked at several of them myself. But if you feel that vanquishing the mighty, legacy-like, evil, pompus arrogant villain that is Southwest Airlines was the greatest thing to happen in your life, then run with it! It's ok. That's what's important to you. Keep your chin up and your logbook up to date. And when the swa application window opens up again, throw your stuff in for review. I have a feeling after another year or two back at the commuters, you'll probably want to go to a national carrier again. Or a legacy. Or a major. Or whatever it is that swa is.

Good luck chief. I think you're going to need it...

LMAO I was thinking the same thing

 

[GuppyWN]

Prediction, we kick your @$$ in Denver, you shrink capacity out of OUR city and you likley have fuloughs in the next year and a half. ;-) Cheers!

Why don't you email Gary Kelly and make a bet then.

Gup

 

[SWA/FO]

What is the big deal with Denver, I could care less. I would have given our base to all the F9 folks. I hate going there. Now, I will hate it more cus those damn animals will be looking at me and the F9 gound folks will try to run me over. Oh and their hockey team SUCKS, Sakic was the only good player they had. (he retired way before 65)

 

[328dude]

I have no response to a F9 guy that wishes furloughs on other employee groups.

 

[fiel12]

I think that if F9 was that important for WN to acquire, GK would never have held on to the labor contingency clause. WN has 2+ Billion in the bank. They had the money to up the offer if they wanted to, and GK could have removed the clause if he needed to. Who knows? Maybe those guys in DAL aren't "naive". Maybe there is a plan B. Which might include RAH dropping a $150 million claim to secure their acquisition. And WN spending $0 dollars to appease their pilots. (bargaining chip during section 6 negotiations). Just maybe, WN is "naive" like a fox.

 

[say again]

stratus72 get over it!!! You sound like a bitter 3 yr old that got his lolipop taken away. It's done, over, kaput.

I wish all you F9 guys the best of luck as it may be a tough road ahead.

He's an a$$

NO NO NO!!! Stay where you are, or go somewhere else. Who needs to fly with that? Maybe some anger management though! I was actually thinking our Airlines would have been a good combo, but after reading the posts on this Forum, I am starting to hope that the Frontier Poolies stay at their NEW Regional Airline!!!
