I took him 4-wheeling in Waikaneskirt said:Wasn't Branson seen in Hawaii recently?
Thanks Jim.. What a mess were in but at least we get to fly over palm trees and exotic tropical reefs. NOT! (insert "we will fight them" Winston Churchill speech here).. Heres to seeing you on the other side of all this.Jim said:I'm one furloughed HAL pilot that wishes this had never happened. There is room for both of us in the Hawaii market and neither of us deserves this burden. It's all about bad management and stock holders/owners trying to cash in on the backs of the employees. Let's see a realistic ticket price structure and than there would be none of this $hit.
As a 2+ year furloughee on his second furlough since 9/11 - I hope no Aloha pilot hits the streets. Good luck to all of you.

Funny how before Hawaiian went into BK that our former owner Adams paid him and his side kick Randy Smith back about 30 million-stock buyback(after the failed merger w/Aloha) and started to report deep loses. Even after our labor board members voted against draining our cash reserves after 9-11!!!!!The one up-side to a chapter 11 proceeding is this kind of accounting will happen.
ALPA National should be sending bankruptcy lawyers to Honolulu to review all of the proceedings and make sure the accounting is accurate. While pilots are inherantly intelligent people, these bean-counters with Harvard MBA's skated through Ethics 100 with test answers posted on the door when they go in to take the final. (In other words, they don't care about who they screw to insure their golden parachute.) If ALPA isn't responding to this, Aloha pilots should be screaming at the top of their collective lungs to make sure it does. ALPA comunications should be doing the spin to the press as well. Perception is everything!
Sorry, I realize that's about 15 cents worth when I'm only entitled to two
