Hope they open the doors again soon then. Lots of 30 y/o mil guys are looking seriously at getting out but their window will close soon. And if they stay in, it's about a 18 mths wait until the next batch of pilots can get out due to extended initial training commitments.
agree. hope ALPA makes sure both sides get a bigger cut of that money. Consider the stock prices over the last month: announce merger talks and both stocks climb. Then turn the WHOLE THING (right) over to the pilot unions for permission and they can't agree on the deal, so the stock tumbles and...
I don't know, Max. perhaps it's instructive for 'outsiders' to see how valuable seniority is to the pilot profession. Hedge fund mgrs, bankers, congressmen, DOJ execs, etc. probably don't appreciate that. Now they can see first hand. After all, we're just 'labor' -- technicians they said (even...
Maybe Pardus can help out with all this. After all, they were SO helpful a few months ago when they prematurely suggested a UAL/DAL deal. Maybe this time they could put some money where their mouth was. Not suggesting that anyone's seniority be for sale but some extra cash might bring the...

what else is he going to say? take these jobs out of my state? He'll probably fight this publicly as long as possible so that voters perceive he is looking out for them, otherwise those NWA (and DAL too, in GA) folks who lose their jobs are likely to vote for his opponent next election...
thanks for posting the article, GL. Aside from the sniping, I don't see much discussion either from DAL or NWA guys. It seems both sides either don't care or are expecting something to happen.
