GJ mgt and TSA mgt ARE THE SAME! Some one tell me how this is not the case! GJ is in the same building that TSA is in.

Have you ever been DAL Holding or to AMR their mgt is in the same buildings some in cubicles next to each other. Most the upper mgnt (VP Level) is in the holding company.

This building is the old TWA training center in STL, Now owned By whom?AMERICAN!!

WRONG. That building is owned by the city. AMR sold it in October 2005.

The very scope that GJ was started to circumvent!

You are CORRECT here. So was Shuttle America/Republic.

But no all you seperate company coolaid drinkers keep drinking!! Seperate web sites DOES NOT MAKE SEPERATE COMPANIES!!

Read pages 36, 37, 38, 39. There many more reasons then a website that the NMB found them to be separate carries.

RESEARCH? that doesn't change anything. don't complicate the issues. But you want some basic research here you go. You guys only have a union, in order to be a union busting tool.

It might be almost a year old, but still accurate, unlike your attempts to muddy the waters.

ALPA President to Trans States Management: We'll Cooperate, but We're Not Backing Down
ST LOUIS, MO - The head of the union that represents pilots at St. Louis-based Trans States Airlines today told pilots at a rally at Lambert Airport that the union is taking a carrot-and-stick approach to resolving labor issues at the airline.
"I have come here today to personally issue a public challenge to your management to alter the course that they have taken in dealing with their pilots," said Capt. Duane Woerth, president of the Air Line Pilots Association, International, in remarks prepared for the rally.
"I have come to challenge them to work cooperatively with our union to help build this airline for the future. And I have come to offer to help promote new business opportunities for this airline and new job opportunities for its ALPA pilots. I am convinced that, together, we can build Trans States into a strong, solid company for decades to come," Woerth said.
"I have also come here to draw public attention to the fact that, sadly, our efforts to discuss the issues before us in cooperation with the company have, to date, met with little to no success. Using only the most tenuous thread of justification, Trans States management has sought to create an alter-ego carrier that they intend to staff with pilots not sheltered by an ALPA-bargained contract," he said.
"In response to this tactic, we have been forced to file a grievance concerning this alter-ego carrier, because management has made it clear that ************************* exists solely to evade ALPA and the TSA-ALPA agreement. The clearest proof? Management's premature and illegal attempt to install a separate union before ************************* employs any pilots or begins operations. While management's public claim that a contractual restriction makes it impossible to extend the ALPA contract to larger jets, I assure you that we can readily overcome this very common obstacle," Woerth said.
"The management at Trans States has concluded that they have some strong opportunities for growth of their company-in new sectors, in new markets, on new routes, and flying for new carriers. I applaud that vision. I salute it. That being said, I insist that the Air Line Pilots Association and the pilots we represent play our legitimate role in tangibly contributing to that growth. There is absolutely no justifiable reason to create an alter-ego carrier or a carrier that is 'walled off' from our pilots, whose sacrifices and hard work have built this company. ************************* may indeed be a viable operation moving forward-but only with our pilots in those cockpits," he said.
"Unfortunately, time is running out, because the management team at TSA has decided to do more than just stop talking to our pilots and their representatives. They have made the unfortunate - and potentially devastating - decision to crack down on our union and our union representatives here in St. Louis and elsewhere," he said.
"Standing right here with me today are two good ALPA representatives-officers who put their necks on the line for their brothers and sisters-who have recently been unjustifiably fired by TSA. The Executive Council of our International union was so outraged by these maneuvers that it recently voted to make these fired pilots financially whole until they are rightfully returned to their cockpits. That's what being union is all about. I will not tolerate attacks on, or interference with, our union representatives-pilots or employees-simply because they are members or staff of this union," Woerth said.
"The climate here at Trans States Airlines does not need to be poisoned. We can start fresh today - if management accepts our offered hand and alters their course of action. If they make that change, we can build a better airline and a better environment for the future," he said.

REDBOOK,
That speach was given in the Spring of 2005. That was the last time Worth spoke publicly on the GJ matter. After TSA MEC fail to secure the flying and the NMB ruling, ALPA national has not addressed the issue they know there is no point, they even tried to organize GJ pilots.

ALPA lost this one because of a hard headed MEC. End of story.

You are correct that Duane has been mostly silent, that is just evidence of a failure to show leadership and follow up on the basic truths that he stated last may.

Hard headed mec? 75% said no to a horrible ultimatum put forth by tsa management with an assist from people like you. The only loss in this is the g0jet pilots careers. That is why you are fighting so hard to confuse the issues.

Whose making assumptions now? I never said I was an f/o!! In the airlines for 6 years, no reason to change my sign in! Beside it's fun to see people make STUPID assumptions!! How about these facts, GJ gom made by a tsa f/o on reserve!! All GJ start up people worked at TSA prior to "GJ " becoming seperate! But I understand your trying to justify your actions, I just don't understand why GJ pilots hide their ID's and all walk together in ord. If you feel so good about being a GJ pilot then grow some *****!! COME OUT OF THE CLOSET!! I've come to see "in life" that guilty people ACT GUILTY!!!

I still don't know what you a talking about. I have watched people walk around ORD. I don't ever see anyone hiding any ID's. Yes sometime IDs are hard to see. They flop around on lanyards, I see gate agents, pilots from every airline, rampers, and wheelchair pusher with IDs that have flopped backwards. But these mysterious GJ pilots hiding their IDs and uniform brass, I just don't see.

I see more MESA pilots walking around ORD in all types get ups, from nonstandard jackets to sweaters to windbreakers while toting backpacks, they seem to be hiding more and seem less professional than any GJ pilot.

f/o(forever)..... I am letting you have the lastword.... Just grow up....

So your saying It's a case of the flopping ID's?

I don't know if I've seen any GJ pilots in the airport, they hide. I'VE SEEN THEM HIDING!! And if you want to talk about professionalism, lets talk about all the whining that GJ pilots are doing about being "blocked" on the frequencies. I hear other airlines being blocked daily but don't hear them complaining!!
