Awa/usairs Arbitration In !
Yes But more accurately he now has only 300 active (working pilots) below him and that as the Arbitrator pointed out is a direct result of the Merger. Without the merger they would not be now working and more than likely the rest of them would also be unemployed. If there is any proof that... -

Awa/usairs Arbitration In !
Read the award there was no advancement to look at. we knew it the Board knew it but you guys just can't or wont wrap your brains around it. maybe its a tough pill to swallow but the facts are the facts Clearly you would give up your seat or anticipated upgrade seat to this guy because he... -

USAirways East losing respect.
You Sir are correct. It seems that every one that has followed this believes that this was fairly done. With the exception of the placement of the 300 fresh recalls even their own Pilot Neutral who they picked agreed with this descision. You have to wonder what color the sky is in their world. -

Awa/usairs Arbitration In !
Mr. Swaayze I guess I am looking in the wrong place. I just can't find the part of the ALPA merger policy that says time in service means anything. Using your logic all the guys from Eastern, Braniff, TWA etc are owed better seniority placement whereever they are working because the have 15... -

Well Said !! Since they would have you believe that they are the Superior more experienced and knowledgeable of pilot groups, lets see if their Leadership can step up and lead the way through this with the voice of reason. They shot for the moon and missed etc. If not and they take the STFD... -

Awa/usairs Arbitration In !
Those who think this is lopsided need to read the Award and not just look at numbers and dates of hire. What the AAA guys asked for, actually demanded, was unreasonable and not at all in line with ALPA merger policy. Which by the way does not even mention DOH. So harping on DOH is a waste of... -

Awa/usairs Arbitration In !
"Just get used to it, you are gonna hear bitching until the last USAir pilot retires. The only way to end the conversation in the cockpit is to agree with them about how bad they got screwed and to be embarrassed about how big your windfall was" Nah, won't be doing that. nobody got a... -

US Recalls
As retirement age will surely change (ie the latest NPRM) surely that is false reasoning. And as this is a recall thread..... In a display of sheer genius The East guys testified in the arbitration something to the effect that "hey to get 160 guys to accept recall the company is... -

AAA/AWA Integration...
I agree that they are separate issues. I think the reference was directed more at the fact that one cannot have a conversation with a AAA pilot with out hearing a long disertation about "What I've lost, what we used to have, poor us it's been so terrible" etc etc. It gets to be difficult when... -

AAA/AWA Integration...
First of all we can agree that the ALPA merger policy states the one side should not recieve a windfall at the expense of the other. Explain to me how a furloughed AAA pilot coming back to the Seniority list anywhere other than the bottom of the list (the best you could have hoped for... -
