FAPA President

Sounds to me like FAPA needs to poll the entire group. WE are not talking Rocket Science here.....nor is that group that large that it couldn't be done.

A simple staple will not be accepted, it would have to include furlough protection, longevity pay and at least a base protection for a predetermined time. The majority of the F9 Capt's think this deal is bad because they don't want to give up their left seat, while the F/O's would probably benefit more because of the pay increase, but not if they are in the unemployment line.:bomb:

That I do not think Gary would give that in writing unless SWAPA is willing to reduce line guarantee. The rest from what I understand,as of this afternoon, has been agreed upon w/ SWAPA. I truly wish you guys at F9 the best of luck.

SWA said that 10 airbuses would go away on day 1, I believe. That would equal a furlough in my opinion.

I am not opposed to the staple job personally. I am already out of a job with no return in site so it doesn't not change my predicament in the short term.

As opposed to the entire airline going away? As stated before, SW is giving F9 this. This fails and they will bury F9 in DEN. Don't think they have the money to do it?
