Have there been any updates today on whether or not Bloch has received the new 9E list? I have heard rumors about one of the 9E SLI committee members being on a trip or something. If that is indeed true that is odd but then they should have been able to review the mythical list last night. It is time to submit the list , folks. If I were a 9E pilot I would be calling my MEC and other elected reps to tell them that this is unacceptable. It is time to submit the list and see where the chips fall.

The list was submitted late last night.

I'm not the one who brought the issue up. The stone was thrown by JAMIESTRAT. You seem to think that PCL pilots should just roll over while we get bombarded with slanderous rumors and outright lies.

I was refering to your response. The timing was the issue, not the fact that we didn't support you!
 
Ya know...when I ride on a 9e airplane...the crews are nice and I always make it a point to say hi.

When I see them in the airport I greet them with a smile.

It is the 15 people from both company's that post 99% of the crap on these forums that make it sound much worse than it is.
 
I have met a lot of good people at 9E and want to move on from this but it will be hard to forget that 9E tried a seniority grab, stalled, adjusted their DOH, and for months I have been hearing how they bought us so it should be a staple....yes I have heard that from more than two 9E pilots. I do not know what happened with the DOH but I hope you will understand that I do not believe a 9E guy posting that they "won" the decision from Bloch. I tend to believe our MEC guys had a good legal standing and your MEC was lost in the clouds on the issue. I also like to see you wonderful 9E guys screaming lies when I talk to a negotiator and Captain Rep and they tell me exactly what you are calling lies. I think if you were to do it, you all would have been right there drinking coolaid with Jim Jones. Oh and that picketing you did was about like drinking Jim Jones coolaid-self destructive.

If you do not know who Jim Jones was.....look it up
 
I've heard a couple times that the 9e list provided last week had guys either pulled from the list, or had a note of "terminated" next to them if they were in the pool somewhere like Fedex or SWA. Mesaba's MEC is trying to protect your own guys by making sure they are still on the list. Just because you are in a pool somewhere doesn't mean you are off of the current airline's list. What would happen if they decided to not put them in a class?

You're nothing to me.

I am sure I am on ignore now, but just in case...

I am sorry you raged over what I have been hearing. I don't make this stuff up. One of my good friends talked with someone on the negotiating commitee. That's where I got the info. I know as much as everyone else on what has happened this past week, heck this past year...not much. Why is what I say a conspiracy theory, but the "Mesaba DOH coup" not one? Where there is smoke, there is fire. It may not be what I said, it may not be what flyer said, it may not be what doin' time said, but there seems to be a lot of talk about this list issue this week. Maybe we will find out, maybe not...
 
So, the 60 days are officially up, and now the XJ furloughees can be listed as active FOs at LGA on the XJ list. Is there a conspiracy theory out there yet that XJ could have intentionally done the dispute to delay the award until this moment? :rolleyes:

Historically speaking, furloughees usually end up at the bottom. Maybe XJ did this to ensure the 'furloughee' status was 'active.' But then again, that's just the conspiracy theory I've been hearing from a few across different groups. Theories, theories? Conspiracies, lies, deception? Conspiracy theory? Is Mel Gibson still available? By the time this is done, we can cast Mel and Julia Roberts as lead cast for the whole SLI story.
 
Notice how this thread just got silent. After tons of accusations against the 9E committee for having ulterior motives, playing unfair, manipulating things on purpose, and a bunch of other false accusations, the other side is now quiet on the change of status for MOU pilots who have now since just expired the 60 days yesterday. Magically, they are no longer considered furloughed on the XJ list? And all of them are considered active on the XJ list? Maybe someone from the XJ side can clarify it all up? Or try and justify what's going on? I knew this 60 day thing had something to do with what's going on. The 60 days are gone, and now, we have this new mess. I had already asked before what would become of these furloughee pilots once the 60 days were up, and now I guess my hunch was realized.

The thread went silent because I think people are getting tired (I know I am). To answer your question: Yes, the Mesaba MEC is in cahoots (sp?) with Mr. Bloch and had him delay his decision until the 20th in which he then was told to ask for new lists. Then when Pinnacle gave their list, the Mesaba MEC pointed to a perfectly good list and disputed it. After that, the Mesaba MEC then told Mr. Bloch to look over what he had for the weekend and to ask for new lists on Monday. Then they called Pinnacle crew scheduling and had your SLI guy put on a trip so they couldn't get another list to Mr. Bloch for a few more days, and Voila!! We are past the magical 60 day time frame so that they can put all of them on our list as not furloughed (even though they were all recalled 60 days ago and on our list anyway) and then told Mr. Bloch not to use the famous "snapshot" we are all talking about. Who keeps talking about conspiracy theories? Maybe that's why the thread went silent.

They were on your list as furloughees on the certified list last year, the list given on May 23, but now, but magically, the newest list doesn't have them listed as furloughees? Ironic to see them change a few data points of their own when they dispute others changing a data point (which was already agreed upon).

Though, I agree with you. All this is just sickening now. The unity I thought would exist just isn't there. All 3 groups have fought aggressively for their own-selves, but I think that came at a high cost. Hopefully, the result will be out soon, and the majority will be happy.
