$200 to vote for USAPA.. open your wallets

[Rez O. Lewshun]

Looks like if you are a USAPA guy your vote comes with a cost... AT LEAST $200.....

http://1.usairlinepilots.org/donate1.htm

We have asked and you have stepped up - thank you! We are doing very well financially, running with ample cash reserves based upon the continuing stream of donations received. That said, based upon our projected needs we need every pilot to contribute at least $200 and to do so as soon as possible so that we have ample cash on-hand for contingencies and legal expenses. If you can only manage a $50 donation using your credit card, please do so - hopefully a fellow pilot can make up the difference. Let us be as clear about this as we can: we will not have sufficient funds to complete this journey if every pilot doesn't pull his or her own weight.
Your support has been nothing short of phenomenal - thanks again.
Do it now.

Democracy cost money! Ask FL and MI! Parker is going to suck the accounts of USAPA dry... and USAPA is going to keep coming to its pilots for more money....

If you don't send money in with your vote... a Kid at the Make a Wish Foundation has a better chance!


nmb vote for USAPA- $200
Watching Parker systematically destroy USAPA as its pilots feed $100 bills into the USAPA shredder

Priceless!!



Finally... what is the dues rate going to be!!! Cha-Ching!!!

Boycaptain...

[BOYCAPTAIN]

I don't care what age he was when he did I just want to know if he can handle all that in his avtar:laugh:

A300 35 why?

.....because I suspect the point of view on ALPA is different for a 35 year old FDX A300 Capt. then it is for a USAirways pilot....Your view is different.....

well i have seen both...i have seen what an independant union can do and what ALPA can do...if the crewforce is not unified u will accomplish nothing!
We(fdx pilots) have played this game...it started with the Tiger merger...watch the videos i posted....it's the same hostility...good luck!

I hope it all works out, but my AWA buds will not go anywhere near USAPA.

Awesome Video!!!

I am so sick of these USAIR "EAST" guys trying to "F" things up for the West guys.

I have no side here, except East was going to be liquidated if it weren't for AWA.

CYA

1. It's clear this group won't be unified with USAPA or ALPA.....do you really think they will be unified with ALPA?

2. You weren't there when the Flying Tigers merger happened.....I suspect you have never had your seniority threatened.....If you do, you may change your tune.....

3. A 35 year old FDX A300 captain has it better than just about every other ALPA member.....many others haven't had it so good....They are going to have a different perspective.....

You might be right...it was ALPA that got us our last contract which was the richest in airline history!

.....at one time USAirways had one of the richest contracts....The pax business is much different than the cargo business....ALPA may be able to deliver a "rich" contract....but it can't protect your job....or allow you to transfer your seniority across company lines....

Many FO's at USairways were hired while you were still a teenager.....

Perspective is important.....

 

[BOYCAPTAIN]

.....Perspective is important.....

You are right! Welcome to aviation!!!

 

[Dan Roman]

I said this elsewere, but the AWA guys I've talked to seem pretty reasonable and the Usair East guys sound like bitter irrational divorcee's. ALPA may not be perfect and it's biggest critics are usually the guys who do the least to make it better, but you are trying to isolate yourself from the rest of the profession at the expense of not just yourself, but all pilots. THANKS "BROTHERS"! These are tough times for the industry and it's probably going to get a lot worse, how you handle adversity speaks volumes and you guys are not doing a very good job.

Sucks to be them............now they are trying to "Take it back" on the backs of the AWA pilots!

F-that!

Did ALPA promise to run the company so there would be job protection?

Did ALPA promise to transfer seniorty?
