AA April 1 furlough cancelled...

Why not? Because that was not the agreement.

I am afraid you are wrong. An arbitrator has already ruled that you cannot buy a company and throw the agreement out because it doesn't fit your grand plan.

Let me get this straight. TWA pilots merged with AA pilots and now are all AA pilots. There are hundreds of AA pilots on furlough. American is going to flow pilots from another airline, Eagle, BEFORE they recall all the real AA pilots. YGTBFKM. Someone must have stated this wrong, there is no way that can float. This is most definitely flame bait.

No, you just don't know the facts. There are several hundred AA pilots at Eagle and they were unfairly penalized during the TWA purchase. After a decade of grievances they are finally moving to AA.

"After a decade and finally moving is a stretch." That is not true. Arbitrator hasn't ruled anything,yet. I'm sure they will flow. Just not at this time.

That's the situation

That's about it.

Yes, he has ruled already. At this point there just waiting on the remedy. The Eagle guys I have talked to are hoping he will keep them there until the recall. From what I hear they would be pay protected back to the date they should have went over so they won't lose any pay or retirement benefits while waiting it out at Eagle. Of course why would those guys want to give up 150K a year and top schedules and no commute to be junior at AA. In my opinion they would be happy to stay as long as possible at Eagle.

I would wait until the ruling to assume what Nicalau will do. He heard hours of testimony that he didn't hear before.
Do you know that 244 pilots make 150K? Are you sure none of those 244 commute? They all live in base? They won't be that junior at AA. Some will be line holders from the get go.

They may be line holders but they will go to the junior bases . The senior bases have reenstatment lists that are a years long. They will not see ORD or DFW for years and years.

Okay so this is all very confusing. I thought AA was going to retire half of its pilots in 7 years. Do you have the official forecast?

The only forcast I have is no manditory retirements until December 2012
