AA pilot sleeps with the CEO's wife and writes book about it!!!
OMFG! This is truely unbelievable!
It's a big topic over on the AA pilots message board. The book is called "Paper Airplanes" The airline name used in the book was changed to Augusta Airlines but not to hard to figure out what the real AAirline is.
The pilot who wrote the book really did give flight instruction to Gerard Arpey (Current CEO of AA) and his wife for over 10 years. Their names are changed in the book though.
Many AA pilots think this guy is a hero, others feel that the current contract negotiations are now totally screwed (pun intended) because this guy basicaly had an affair with the CEO's wife and then outs the whole thing via a book.
I can see the headlines now:
AA pilot screws CEO's wife. CEO screws 10,000 pilots.
