US Air, AMR Merger "within weeks"

[xjhawk]

I agree, quite important. When you get back we'll get you up to speed. Don't forget the principles you were sent to defend.

Hey idiot, he was not sent anywhere-he volunteered. More than your sorry ass has ever done I am sure.

 

[xjhawk]

Never agree to binding arbitration. Anything that the Union you pay money to tells you is the likely outcome is a lie. I know this from personal experience. My union told me they were fighting for DOH and they had a good chance at getting it-Then after it was all done and screwy-we found out that it had been over 25 years since an arbitrator had decided on DOH. So dont expect DOH-Arbitrators use CAT and class and then screw the furloughs.

TWA Dude - are you still furloughed AA? Think you'll get a choice of seniority numbers?

 

[TWA Dude]

Yes, and no. I don't expect I'll be able to choose which seniority number sticks. Presumably the better one will be assigned which is what happened with the USAir furloughees who were flying at AWA.

 

[Jim]

That's kind of what I meant by choice of seniority numbers. That versus "you're active USAir so it's that number only". Of course your active number will probably be higher than your furloughed number.

Good Morning US Airways pilots, lurkers & guests!

Are your sick & tired of Courtney's hair-on-fire hyperbole? :nuts:

Did you not have the chance to read the MOU and attend one of the road shows?

Well, here's your chance to be educated on the MOU. USAPA has put together 9 videos with 3 Q&A videos from your very own. Pilots in attendance included pilots from CLT, PHL, & PHX and I believe DCA.

Take the time to watch the presentation & Q&A's. Write down your notes and questions. PLEASE e-mail your additional questions to your NAC at [email protected]

GO HERE: https://www.youtube.com/user/usairlinepilotsvideo/featured

While these guys (the NAC) are busy, they will field your questions as quickly as possible.

To those that are serious about these proceedings and want an improvement from your current contract & wage: thank you for taking the time to become educated and informed.

I don't see how they could ever force a worse seniority number in TWA Dudes situation. He has a right to recall at AA and a right to that number. Like Dude says it makes sense the best number would automatically be given.

That is not correct we were on the NIC in two locations and we were all offered recall to the east. No one took it but we had the option.

3 West furloughed pilots took employment East.

I was talking about the 18 furloughed east pilots who got hired at AWA before the merger.
