Dear pilot brethren,
Let's not stand by and let the F9 pilots think that they can come into the RAH fold and not allow fair integration. They are not above the law. They will be one company now and we need to stand up and help the RAH pilots. There are laws in this country and just because you are bigger and fly larger airplanes does not mean that you can just walk over our fellow pilots. When these lists are combined there needs to be a complete and fair top to bottom integration!
 
Let it go brother. WN lost. Move on with your life


Your speaking of round 1. the message that you replied to is round 2(ding!). This round has nothing to do with SWA other than SWA setting the standard by which all other F9/RAH/Midwest SLI's will be graded on the scale of more or less evil.

GL,

Frontier flies larger planes, but they are not bigger. F9 is 1/3 the size of RAH...(insert RAH paycheck quip here).

There will be a fair (yet disagreeable) integration. If the pilot groups don't see to that, the courts will.

While RAH pilots do not get much support, and your gesture is appreciated, I don't think anyone has walked all over anyone else in any of the RAH integrations yet. Please give everyone involved a chance to prove their ability to come to a reasonable solution before labeling one side or the other as hostile, uncooperative, and/or unreasonable. No integration proposals have even been submitted (publicly), so there is no reason to criticize any pilot group in this mess yet. Those who vent their feelings on this board, myself included, are not on the negotiating committees, and therefore do NOT represent the feelings and intent of the unions.
 
No dog in this hunt, but have been through three SLI mergers.

F9 guys need to realize they have been bought. The other outcomes were unemployment by Ch 7 or furlough by WN.

OTOH, there is a lot of precedence in SLI arbitration concerning "career expectations". It will be a real uphill fight for guys hired to fly for an RJ company doing paid lift to argue they expected to be flying their own brand in narrow body equipment.

I've flown both, and the bus is easier to fly, but that's not the point. What the top job at your company was when you were hired will be the litmus test the arbitrator will use.

Add in the little fact your management will be telling you they won't pay for any seat swapping or sport bidding, and the outcome is pretty clear.

I'm seeing a long fence, with longevity driving the bidding for any new seats resulting from expansion. And don't forget the Midwest guys, they deserve a seat as well.

Good luck to both sides. If everybody feels equally screwed, it was a fair deal...

All F9 and All Midwest pilots should be integrated by ratio with the RAH pilots taped to the bottom and fenced from flying anything but their rj's.
