AirTran/Npa TA update

Both AMR and NWA pilots had higher paychecks under Clinton than they do under Bush. Just imagine if gas prices had fallen as much as those of the major airline pilots, or vise versa payrates rising at the same rate as gas. We would all be driving Hummers and living in mansions.

Oh please...did you get your economics degree from the bottom of a box of Fruit Loops? All legacy pilots had higher paychecks under Clinton (read: PRE 9-11)! And guess what else? There were also more Legacy pilots in the skies before Bush as well (maybe they got outsourced to India).

And yes, Clinton stopped a walk from the APA, and threatened one with NWA. Bush would most likely do the same.

There have been multiple posts about the anger of the pilot group.

.....

**Newsflash** Just being angry won't get anyone a contract.

Angry pilots and the best on time performance, guess you're not that angry after all.

Can't argue with that...

Everyone I've flown with recently seems to be waiting for some guidance and direction from the "back channels" of the association. NO ONE is willing to do what needs to be done on their own.

Bunch of friggin sheep!

Sack up and start taking the necessary safety measures to get their attention or accept that we will continue to get Jack S**t!
