Just curious. I know of nobody out west who has received USAPA stuff, what about you guys out east?

Has USAPA been active out east since they won?
 
Yeah and those headlights are attached to a 60,000 lb. semi with UNITED written on the side. I almost forgot, behind the first semi is another semi hauling a full load of "binding arbitration". Poor stupid Easties.

Ha ha ha. Stupid hurts.
 
They are in contact with members in good standing. Getting good info.

USAPA has come a long way in just a few months. Elections coming soon. Rome was not buildt in a day and the pilots who started USAPA are regular line guys who were disgusted at how they were represented. So the building of a new Union has started. You can watch and sit there and whine all you want, but the East pilots had no other option then getting rid of ALPA. The West would have done the same thing if they were faced with our situation.
Sorry.
But the good news is you will have all the Phx and Las flying. That belongs to the WEST, plus the 120 planes you came with. So no worries. You will have what belongs to you.
Just do no expect to come over to our bases and take away our flying.

In case of a merger, we are better off not being in ALPA. I do hope the United thing does not happen. United needs our cash. They are burning through 6 mio. a day and have no long term business plan. No planes on order. United is looking for a way out and it should not include USAIR. We are running one of the best operations now. Our on time is very high and lots of upgrades and plane orders for international growth. We are much better off then with United. Tilton is desperate.

Here's another option...STFU and live with the binding arbitration that you agreed to.
 
What does STFU mean?
Anyway, the new Union is much like the binding arbitration. It is all about if you are willing to except what you perceive as fair. We will not accept the Nic award, the same way you are now not accepting USAPA. Telling us to accept Nic is like us telling you to accept USAPA. Same concept. Binding is binding is easier said then done. Like the East did, the West will now fight for their interests. We did and got a new Union.

To be asked to be quiet in a rather stern fashion, some might even consider it rude.

S is to close, T is the, F is to have rough sex and U is higher :)
