Sorry, but I have been a part of a 4 year first ALPA contract negotiation. Also been a part of a 7 year IBT/ALPA second contract negotiation. I do agree that it may take less time at VX. I and others are waiting to see what the latest raise and work rules improvements get us. For now the Co...
I think that we will eventually "union up". But, we will do it on OUR terms. We will not be pushed by outside influences. I don't think you will see ALPA on the property. The Teamsters are totally inappropriate. That leaves VAPA. I think you will eventually see an independent union here. But why...
WOW! Only through a deft move did I avoid spitting coffee all over my computer when I read this from you. You really crack me up. You, Fish/Fubi, are the poster boy for childish and ugly! OMG that is some funny stuff right there.
Except maybe the fact of ALPAs collusion in the existence of regional airlines to begin with. If they had held the line on scope there would be no such thing as an RJ.
I have heard 2nd hand that they are not doing it. In the past I've been told that the ATP test results were only used if a candidate was on the fence. If they all wanted you the test was not used. If the panel was split on a canidate, the test was scored. Good score = good news, bad score = bad...
Pretty much what I expected from such a petty, angry, little tool. As for my former employers there were 4 ALPA carriers and 2 IBT carriers. You can probably figure out from my A/C types flown and ratings who some of them were. Including a couple of Majors that are no longer with us.While I'll...
You really are an @ss. I don't hope for anyone to loose their job. VA is my seventh airline and hopefully my last. Only a souless, little, angry man would hope for someone to loose their job. Thank god I don't have to share a cockpit with you. I feel sorry for your Alaska co-workers. What a tool.
Fubi/Fish, It took you a whole 12 minutes to reply. Your slipping! A year ago it would've been you that posted this. Your google alert for VA not working?
When I interviewed, I was told that the business plan was for no profit for the first five years while they grew to the critical mass point. All our infrastructure is built and staffed for an airline of 60 plus aircraft. The investors are well aware of how we are doing. So long as we are within...
Yes they do look good when they are dressed as the blues brothers. But don't get used to it. No ties is the 2nd best part of our uniform. The 1st is no hats!
