Well

Today I received a political flyer mailed from USAPA trying to blame the "junior, relatively young, America West Pilots who were subsequently furloughed as a result of this merger" as the culprits who are denying the rest of the US Airways pilot group an industry-standard contract.

How pathetic that this is who they chose to blame - people who had the ultimate sacrifice of being put out on the street while all the former USAir pilots were recalled and stayed employed. This proves the ultimate goal of the East- when the circumventing of the NIC was attempted- the East wanted to capture West Captain slots - and if downsized, they want to also capture West First Officer Slots! (But I know the comeback is going to be that the East pilots were integrated out of seniority - even though we are on separate contracts).

And finally, when the flyer concludes with a message to OUR Fellow Pilots - correction - we are plaintiffs and you are the defendants - USAPA concludes with " both East and West pilot groups are heavily armed legally and financially" - correction - they think the West still owes hundreds of thousands of dollars to our attorney - lets see how that works out when they are forced pay a judgment that awards damages to the plaintiffs.

And finally - how did USAPA get my home address? Maybe Cleary could ask for an investigation about that?

Seham destroyed AOL the first time around and he will do it again! Punk west pilots had no future before 2005 and they never would have seen widebodies it it werent for the Buyout. We had no reason to be with them but they needed us to survive long term. Phoenix is no lifeblood

AOL destroyed Seham the first time around and they will do it again! Pathetic East pilots had no future before 2005 and they never would have had a job it it weren't for the Buyout. We had no reason to be with them but they needed us to survive long term. USAir is no lifeblood.

There, I fixed it.

I have to say that was very creative (but just a little bit delusional) - sounds like you were the author of the flyer?

Nope, although I respect the guys who have put their lives on hold to protect the interests of their fellow AWA pilots. I just wanted to point out how the guys on both end of the bell curve are saying the same thing, just with the names reversed. I don't attempted to speak for anyone else on the West when I say I've become bored with the entire thing. You say, he says, she says, I say.... It's all just hot air at this point. I'm not saying I don't care. I'm just saying in my opinion, the seniority list issue was settled a long time ago. When it gets implemented is now in the hands of the extremists and the lawyers. I hope you are enjoying the ride more than I am.

What is the upgrade time at USAir? What bases are Junior/Senior? Can one of you walk in my resume?

Message to all US Airways East pilots who received the recent pamphlet from the AWA pilot group Leonidas - DO NOT through it away.

Yes, DO NOT through it away!

You may, however, throw it away...

I'm a little embarrassed.

You're from Texas.

You'll forget the Alamo sooner than the East or West will forget.
