Fear grenades at Pinnacle continue...

A significant percentage of the group needs to reach critical mass at the same time....

Ghandi and MLKjr knew this and managed it to success.

Getting pilots to a critical mass at the same time is the easy part. Getting them to critical mass when it matters is the hard part.

Agreed... fortunately for the PCL pilots... the ALPA leadership over there is quite capable.... and that includes the 'Majors and LT. Colonels' within the rank and file... not just the 'Generals'.... thus ensuring that PCL is not the next Mesa...

Was kinda funny how a diehard group of guys/gals did that for the last 3-4 years of the negotiations at ASA and nothing changed. Then when everyone else who was kinda apathetic and in the middle(cept the company tool's and you know who you are) started doing it too(Aug-Sep 07), we got that contract wrapped up real quick! Amazing how it works....

I wish my amigos would figure this out.

It took the ASA pilots over 5 years to figure it out. I doubt some of the guys at Pinnacle will be any quicker, unfortunately. Some people just don't get it.

Hey, I'm all for taxiing at the safest [slowest] speed! But every Captain I fly with taxies like we are racing in the Indy5000 (Yes, I said 5000 for emphasis).

Just do what I used to do. When you're taxiing out at mach fast, just take a long look around and then look at the dimwitted speed demon Captain you're flying with and deadpan "so, who we racing?" That usually gets the point across.

LOL! I'll try it.
