Great idea that won't happen. Two pilot groups that see nothing but entitlement to seniority gains won't ever come to an agreement.

Arbitration = the only option.

Good video and 100% on the money . Without the integration being figured out in a timely and permanent manner this merger is pointless. Stop the childish feuding and get it done.

Damn, I miss Bob Crandall. He hasn't missed a beat since he left. If you guys want this combined Airline to be successful, someone needs to coax that man out of retirement pronto. Great video Bob and spot on as usual.

Right on the money, it will be a mess otherwise with separate operations and loss of efficiencies. LCC still doesn't have one integrated operation.

Delta/NW worked so well because they threw money at the Pilot group. Money is the key.

Agreed, I think it would be realistic for the new AA/US mgmt to toss a DAL contract at the combined group if they can get their seniority list in order.

Thanks for the link.

Pretty impressive that the money hired Crandall to visit Bloomberg a week or so ago to announce that "pilot seniority cooperation" is critical to a successful merger, and now this video. Spot on. Resistance will exist but the majority will see he is correct. It's a no brainer.

Yes bring on Delta contract!

You do realize that the only way you will get that Delta Contract, or any contract, will be via a Nicolau seniority list. Just making sure to remind you in case you forgot. St. Nic is coming...........

What good is seniority when it's tied to bankruptcy rates? I can only speak for myself but I'd gladly take a seniority hit to make 75% more pay.

then you dont know how East Pilots think

Crandall is talking about pilot seniority cooperation for a reason. APA and USAPA can probably get his point. P.S. Crandall is on the board (not AOL board).

He is acknowledging that the last arbitrated SLI (binding arbitration btw), didn't go well, so the Easties had better get it right this time. Since the award was binding, everyone knows that it will have to be dealt with, not swept under the rug like SWAPA has done. It will have to be resolved before anyone gets a raise. St. Nic will be on everyone's mind.... Just like a divorce settlement, you can't just sweep it under the rug and take your F150 truck back from your Ex Wife after it was awarded to her. You just can't. St. Nic will be alive and well....



Bye Bye---General Lee

Why did this get moved into the general aviation thread?

 

[Flybywire44]

This video directly addresses 13,000+ major airline pilots. Why was this thread moved to the general aviation section?

Admins should post a response explaining why they move threads.

Very lame.

Not to worry. The video is going viral on the line.

Good.

It is odd that admins are minimizing progressive US Airways threads.
